Glob Pattern Tester

Test bounded POSIX path globs with *, **, ?, character classes, brace alternatives and exclusions in a local Worker.

Enabling local controls…

Matching options

Generic glob: includes combine; ! exclusions win. This is not gitignore. At most 32 patterns / 1,000 paths; Worker processing stops after one second.

Match results

Test to inspect per-pattern counts and paths.

Usage and limits

Enter one pattern and relative path per line. Include matches combine; any ! exclusion removes a path regardless of order. Choose full path or basename matching, dotfiles and ASCII case sensitivity. ** is a whole segment and crosses directories.

This is generic glob, not gitignore. No extglobs, brace ranges, absolute paths or filesystem access. Dotfiles need a literal leading dot unless enabled. Limits: 32 patterns/8 KiB, 1,000 paths/64 KiB, 256 characters and 64 segments each, 64 brace alternatives, two million comparisons and a one-second Worker deadline.
