Help: Document that file(GLOB) result is sorted
It has been sorted since commit v3.6.0-rc1~54^2 (file: Sort GLOB results
to make it deterministic, 2016-05-14). That commit left the order
unspecified in the documentation, but has been stable long enough to
document now.

Globbing expressions are similar to regular expressions, but much simpler. If ``RELATIVE`` flag is specified, the results will be returned as relative paths to the given -path. No specific order of results is defined other than that it is -deterministic. If order is important then sort the list explicitly -(e.g. using the :command:`list(SORT)` command). +path. The results will be ordered lexicographically. By default ``GLOB`` lists directories - directories are omited in result if ``LIST_DIRECTORIES`` is set to false. |
