Our thoughts on feature requests

Lots of developers rely on gulp, so we don't make big changes very often. Not every feature request will be added to gulp, but hearing about what you want is important. Don't be afraid to submit a feature request!

Describe your idea for a new feature

the glob watcher relies on anymatch which supports a lot of options. For example for me nocase is an example of option I wound like.

Explain the problem your idea is trying to solve

I need to use glob-matcher to match some globs with case insensitivy

How will it benefit gulp and its users?

I think it just allows a whole new set of options without bracking the current functionality

If this feature could exist outside of gulp (like as a plugin or a module), would you be interested in helping to create and maintain it?

All options are passed through here: https://github.com/gulpjs/glob-watcher/blob/master/index.js#L105

Thanks let me give a try.
I was under the impression from my review of the code that:

  // TODO: I'm not sure how to test this  
if (negatives.some(exists)) {    
var normalizedPositives = positives.map(joinCwd);    
var normalizedNegatives = negatives.map(joinCwd);   
 var shouldBeIgnored = function(path) {      
var positiveMatch = anymatch(normalizedPositives, path, true);      
var negativeMatch = anymatch(normalizedNegatives, path, true);      
//if negativeMatch is -1, that means it was never negated      
if (negativeMatch === -1) {        return false;      }
      // If the negative is "less than" the positive, that means      // it came later in the glob array before we reversed them      return negativeMatch < positiveMatch;    };
    opt.ignored = [].concat(opt.ignored, shouldBeIgnored);  }

The anymatch calls above where not taking advantage of the given options.

I will just test again. Thanks !
