💻 Code

secret.js:

console.log(123)

🙁 Actual behavior

ast-grep run --pattern 'console.log'

✅ Returns the match in secret.js as expected.

ast-grep run --pattern 'console.log' --lang js

✅ Continues to match in secret.js as expected.

ast-grep run --pattern 'console.log' --globs '!secret*'

✅ Does not match file (since the glob excludes secret.js)

ast-grep run --pattern 'console.log' --lang js --globs '!secret*'

❌ Returns the match in secret.js, which is supposed to be excluded by --globs

🙂 Expected behavior

I expect --lang and --globs to coexist. In my example, I would like to be able to search JS files that match my glob expression. I haven't found a spot in the docs that explains that these options are one-or-the-other.

Additional information about the issue

Potentially related issue: #1842.

Running ast-grep 0.36.0.
