[BUG] `rm.all` doesn't delete anything on Windows about cacache HOT 3 CLOSED

The problem is lib/util/glob.js

https://www.npmjs.com/package/glob#windows

The pattern argument is cache\*(content-*|index-*) on windows, cache/*(content-*|index-*) on linux.

Maybe globify should be something like this

const globify = (pattern) => pattern.replace(/\\+|\/{2,}/g, '/')

But I really don't understand why double forward slashes are replaced at all.

from cacache.

I'm having an issue where the stats from cacache.verify are not properly reported on Windows because the files are not detected.

The root of the problem is the same: globify function is not replacing to forward-slashes as glob library is expecting to handle Windows paths.

I found that before globify was at lib/verify.js, the replacement of the forward-slashes was made correctly.

const globify = pattern => pattern.split('\\').join('/')

But when created the file lib/util/glob.js and moved globify there, it was changed to

const globify = pattern => pattern.split('//').join('/')

which is causing problems when glob is used for obtaining stats and cleanup in the case of verify
