Under ":help starstar-wildcard" it is said that the ** wildcard goes up to 100 levels deep.

Under ":help starstar" it is said that it goes up to 30 levels deep by default, but that any integer value in the range [0,255] can be explicitly specified.

Both of them in
*editing.txt*   For Vim version 7.0.  Last change: 2006 Apr 30

Which one is true? 100 or 30?

Please check the context.  100 levels is for expanding wildcards in a
file name, e.g. for ":next **/Makefile".  30 levels if for using ** in
'path' and some other options that specify a list of paths.


Ah, I see.


Best regards,
Tony.
