Globbing for noobs

[sindresorhus]

Globbing is used all over the place, but I've yet to find a nice intro guide for beginners.

Should include usage examples for common pattern combinations.

Need it for globby and multimatch.

Resources:

• https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch#features
• https://github.com/sindresorhus/multimatch/blob/master/test.js

http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/syntax/expansion/globs may also be of help (although the above two resources cover it quite nicely)

👍 also noting the difference between the various globbing libraries/tools/shells would be great

[sindresorhus]

Yes, and the guide will be mainly focused on the patterns node-glob supports.
