The glob spec of EditorConfig works in a non-intuitive way that is different from glob of POSIX-compatible shells. The pattern matching is done in the directory the target file is in instead of the EditorConfig file in, like the '.gitignore' file. Therefore, simply 'foo' matches 'foo' in the root directory and each sub-directory, and '/foo' has to be used to match the file in the root directory only.
