Minor Changes

• #2089 0106b48 Thanks @cherkanovart! - Support recursive glob patterns (**) in bucket include/exclude.

  Patterns like config/locales/**/[locale].yml or src/**/[locale]/strings/*.json now match files at any depth, so you no longer need to enumerate every nesting level. The previous restriction that rejected any pattern containing ** has been removed.

  Two safety nets ship with this change, both scoped to patterns that actually use **:

  • For ** patterns only, node_modules, .git, dist, build, .next, and .turbo are excluded by default so a broad pattern like **/[locale].json does not descend into vendored or build trees. Existing patterns without ** keep the previous traversal behavior exactly as before. Add your own exclude entries on top as needed.
  • When a matched file cannot be unambiguously mapped back to the [locale] placeholder (for example, a pattern with multiple wildcards around [locale] that admits more than one valid restoration), the CLI now throws a clear error instead of silently returning a malformed path.
