In the case of zsh it will quite happily do either and ask you which you meant just like if they were called Dir1 and Dir2. Also works if you have a dir1 and Dir2 in the same directory as well
If you have “Dir1” and “DIR2” and you type “cd d”, your prompt will look like in the next picture. Fish automatically transforms “d” into “D”, because there is no dir starting with the lowercase “d”.
On a subsequent <TAB> you’ll get a list of dirs matching your prompt so far in which you choose an entry with the cursor key and enter it with the enter key.
You can, but assholes out there won’t.

If I have two folders in my directory,
Dir1anddir2, what doesd <TAB>autocomplete to and what should it do?At least on zsh it would pop both of those as suggestions you can cycle through.

In fish it would immediately expand to dir2.
