# File-Globstar

This library implements globbing with support for "**" in Perl.

Two consecutive asterisks stand for all files and directories in the
current directory and all of its descendants.

See [File::Globstar](https://github.com/gflohr/File-Globstar/blob/master/lib/File/Globstar.pod) for more information.

The library also contains [File::Globstar::ListMatch](https://github.com/gflohr/File-Globstar/blob/master/lib/File/Globstar/ListMatch.pod), a module that implements matching against lists of patterns in the style of [gitignore](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore).
