+ This method calls :meth:`Path.is_dir` on the top-level directory and
+ propagates any :exc:`OSError` exception that is raised. Subsequent

By default, or when the *case_sensitive* keyword-only argument is set to
``None``, this method matches paths using platform-specific casing rules:
typically, case-sensitive on POSIX, and case-insensitive on Windows.
