Interesting, do you have a link? ---------------------------------------- Feature #8258: Dir#escape_glob https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8258#change-38567 Author: steveklabnik (Steve Klabnik) Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: This is inspired by https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/6010. Basically, if you do a Dir.glob in a directory whose name contains a glob character, things break. It would be nice to have a method which would escape the input so that we can Dir.glob inside of those directories. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
