globset 0.4.18 GlobBuilder backslash_escape default Windows backslash path separator official docs source

💡 Result:

In **globset 0.4.18**, `GlobBuilder::backslash_escape` is **disabled by default on Windows**. The docs say it defaults off on platforms where `\` is a path separator, and enabling it makes `\` an escape character rather than a path separator. ([docs.rs](https://docs.rs/globset/0.4.18/globset/struct.GlobBuilder.html))

So on Windows, leave it disabled if you want backslashes treated as path separators; enable it explicitly if you want backslash escaping in glob patterns.

site:docs.rs/globset/0.4.18 globset GlobBuilder backslash_escape default Windows

💡 Result:

In **globset 0.4.18**, `GlobBuilder::backslash_escape` is **disabled by default on Windows**, because `\` is a path separator there. On platforms where backslash isn’t a path separator, it’s enabled by default. You can explicitly override this with `.backslash_escape(true)` or `.backslash_escape(false)`.

globset 0.4.18 Glob::new implementation GlobBuilder default options official docs

💡 Result:

In **globset 0.4.18**, `Glob::new` is documented as building a pattern with default options; its signature is `pub fn new(glob: &str) -> Result<Glob, Error>`. ([docs.rs](https://docs.rs/globset/0.4.18/globset/struct.Glob.html))

The documented `GlobBuilder` defaults are:

- Case-insensitive matching: **off**
- `literal_separator`: **off** — `*` and `?` can match `/`
- `empty_alternates`: **off**
- `allow_unclosed_class`: **off**
- `backslash_escape`: **platform-dependent** — on where `\` is not a path separator, off where it is. ([docs.rs](https://docs.rs/globset/0.4.18/globset/struct.GlobBuilder.html))

`GlobBuilder::new` creates the builder; parsing/building occurs with `.build()`. The docs establish these public semantics, but don’t show the internal body of `Glob::new`. ([docs.rs](https://docs.rs/globset/0.4.18/globset/struct.GlobBuilder.html))

Keep Windows path globs anchored.

On Windows, globset::Glob::new treats \ as a path separator, not an escape. The /-only check prefixes src\*.rs with **/, so it can match both src/file.rs and nested/src/file.rs. Keep this check specific to the Windows globset backend, and test both paths.

Review comment at @crates/fff-core/src/index/constraints.rs at line 519:
Update the glob anchoring condition in the constraints logic to recognize
backslashes as path separators only for the Windows globset backend, excluding
the zlob feature. Add coverage verifying that a Windows pattern such as
`src\*.rs` matches `src/file.rs` but not `nested/src/file.rs`.
