Globbing with glob vs. pathlib

It might be worth mentioning that glob.glob
and pathlib.Path.glob
work slightly differently. glob.glob
treats dotfiles specially, while pathlib.Path.glob
uses **
only to match directories, not files. It's easy to use pathlib.Path.glob
without reading the docs closely enough to realize the differences from glob.glob
and bash globstar behavior, and thus construct a pattern that doesn't match what you want.

Thanks, I didn't know this, so will add a remark.
Edit: added a remark, I think some examples would help
