Used fish's array multiplication to generate all the `--ignore` options for
a number of subdirectories:
```
ag --case-sensitive '\bsplit\b' '--ignore='(echo */{log,tmp,prototype} |
tr ' ' \n)
```
I couldn't just do
```
ag --case-sensitive '\bsplit\b' '--ignore='(echo -ns
*/{log,tmp,prototype}\n)
```
because then the globbing ended up non-existent files with literal newlines
in their name.
I'd expect there's a user-accessible fish function that, given a glob
string, will return a list of matching paths. Assuming the function is call
`fish_glob_expand`, my command would have been
```
ag --case-sensitive '\bsplit\b' '--ignore='(fish_glob_expand
'*/{log,tmp,prototype}')
```
Is there a function exposing the glob expansion?
Thanks,
Scott
