Hi folks, I don't get why there is the "files" option, which is surpassed by the "include" option.

probably there for different reasons

#
  • legacy?
#
  • the name "file" implies that only those exact files will be included, and that you have to provide the complete path
#
  • "include" sounds and is broarder, since it allows for glob patterns
