-					Glob patterns are like simplified regular expressions that shells use. An asterisk (<c>*</c>) matches zero or more characters; <c>[abc]</c> matches any character inside the brackets (in this case a, b, or c); a question mark (<c>?</c>) matches a single character; and brackets enclosing characters separated by a hyphen (<c>[0-9]</c>) matches any character between them (in this case 0 through 9). You can also use two asterisks to match nested directories; <c>a/**/z</c> would match <c>a/z</c>, <c>a/b/z</c>, <c>a/b/c/z</c>, and so on.
