When running multiple glob operations, I want to cache IO operations across all of them. The intuitive way to do this, at least for me, looks something like this:
I create a cache first and then pass it into each glob call.
Without a
glob.createFsCache
function, I would have to start the first glob operation, grab its caching options, and then pass those to subsequent glob calls. However, that's extra conditional logic and confusion that can be avoided.Without a
createFsCache
function, my code has to do one or both of:realpathCache
,cache
,symlinks
, andstatCache
null
prototype (this is undocumented)If you think this is worth merging, I can add README documentation to this PR.
