This solution works for dot files like ".myconfig.js"?

IMHO suggesting people to use ** without explaining what should go into .prettierignore nearby will cause some confusion and result lots of extra issues in this repo. It took me a while to establish a sustainable structure for .prettierignore – this task was not trivial. All this glob stuff (**/* vs *.* vs * vs !*.blah) is pretty hard-core.

Also it is necessary to ensure that prettier --write "**" behaves in cmd.exe or PowerShell equally well before advising to use this trick.

The ** is a itignore expression that I believe is processed by the ignore library, not by the OS shell. (The quotes disable shell expansion.) Thus it should be the same on every platform.

I believe so too, I'm just saying that it would be cool to manually verify this 🙂

@kachkaev I'm going to reopen #6280, since it sounds like we haven't fully answered the question of "How do I use the CLI to fix all files?" We can resume the discussion there.

Superseded by #7660
