There are no options to control globbing so it always behaves like that.
The ``**`` glob will match in subdirectories as well. In other shells this often needs to be turned on with an option, like ``setopt globstar`` in bash.
Unlike bash, fish will also follow symlinks, and will sort the results in a natural sort, with included numbers compared as numbers. That means it will sort e.g. music tracks correctly even if they have numbers like ``1`` instead of ``01``.
See :ref:`Wildcards <expand-wildcard>` for more.
