- `*` can match any string of characters not containing '/'. This includes matching an empty string.
- `**` matches any string of characters. This includes matching an empty string. The matched string may include the `/` character; that is, it recurses into subdirectories. Note that augmenting this wildcard with other strings will not match files in the current working directory (`$PWD`) if you separate the strings with a slash ("/"). This is unlike other shells such as zsh. For example, `**\/*.fish` in zsh will match `.fish` files in the PWD but in fish will only match such files in a subdirectory. In fish you should type `***.fish` to match files in the PWD as well as subdirectories.

Other shells, such as zsh, provide a rich glob syntax for restricting the files matched by globs. For example, `**(.)`, to only match regular files. Fish prefers to defer such features to programs, such as `find`, rather than reinventing the wheel. Thus, if you want to limit the wildcard expansion to just regular files the fish approach is to define and use a function. For example,
