That is in line with what e.g. zsh globbing does as well.
This is contrary to what's written in the design doc in the wiki. It also invalidates the wildcard normalization rules defined in that doc (and implemented by the parser), making the wildcard semantics inconsistent. For example, the rule that a trailing /** should be converted to a /* clearly no longer works after this change Please update the doc and make the design consistent before implementing major semantic changes. -- Brane -- Branko Čibej | Director of Subversion WANdisco | Realising the impossibilities of Big Data e. br...@wandisco.com
