A file which matches the pattern in multiple ways is returned multiple times
See original GitHub issueSuppose I have the following file:
C:\files\a\a\a\b.txt
When I use the following code:
string[] matchingFiles = Glob.Files(@"C:\files", "**/a/**/b.txt").ToArray();
matchingFiles result is:
[0] = a\a\a\b.txt
[1] = a\a\a\b.txt
[2] = a\a\a\b.txt
When I add another a\ subfolder, it gets another item added etc.
Is this by design? I would rather get distinct values.

Fixed in version 1.1.7
How about just using a
HashSet<string>to store the paths? That way, duplicates won’t be stored, and it’sO(1)insertion time complexity (almost no cost).
