Function GlobPaths

pkg/cmdutil/args.go:85–100

GlobPaths expands a list of file patterns into a list of file paths. If no files match a pattern, that pattern will return an error. If no pattern is passed, this returns an empty list and no error. For information on supported glob patterns, see https://pkg.go.dev/path/filepath#Match

(patterns []string)
