+
+## 2025-05-21 - 11.2.1 - fix(fs)
+Fix inconsistent glob matching in listFileTree and update test imports and dependency versions for enhanced stability.
+
+- Enhanced listFileTree to support **/ patterns by using dual patterns (root and nested) with deduplication.

+Refactor copy and copySync functions to simplify return type
+
+- Changed the return type of fs.copy and fs.copySync from boolean to void.

+
+## 2025-01-29 - 11.1.6 - fix(fs)
+Fix issues with fs file copy functions.
+
+- Updated dependencies in package.json.
+- Corrected comments for asynchronous and synchronous file copy functions in fs.ts.
+
+## 2025-01-07 - 11.1.5 - fix(fs)
+Improve waitForFileToBeReady function to handle directories and file stabilization
+
+- Enhanced the waitForFileToBeReady to handle directory paths by checking for file existence within directories and waiting for stabilization.
+- Modified the watcher logic to cater to changes when monitoring directories for file appearance.
+- Introduced a helper function to ensure paths exist and another to resolve the first file in directories.
+- Corrected logic for polling and stabilizing files within directories.
+
+## 2025-01-07 - 11.1.4 - fix(fs)
+Fix file existence check in waitForFileToBeReady method.
+
+- Ensured that the directory and file exist before setting up the watcher in waitForFileToBeReady.
+- Changed ensureDirectoryExists to ensureFileExists for correct file path verification.
+- Handled ENOENT errors correctly to retry file existence checks until timeout is reached.
+
 ## 2025-01-07 - 11.1.3 - fix(fs)
 Fix TypeScript type issue in fs module

+# SmartFile Implementation Hints
+
+## listFileTree Function Enhancement (ts/fs.ts:367-415)
+
+### Issue Fixed
+The `listFileTree` function previously had inconsistent behavior with `**/*.extension` patterns across different systems and glob implementations. Some implementations would miss root-level files when using patterns like `**/*.ts`.
+
+### Solution Implemented
+Modified the function to explicitly handle `**/` patterns by:
+1. Detecting when a pattern starts with `**/`
+2. Extracting the file pattern after `**/` (e.g., `*.ts` from `**/*.ts`)
+3. Running both the original pattern and the extracted root pattern
+4. Using a Set to deduplicate results and ensure consistent ordering
+
+### Key Benefits
+- Guarantees consistent behavior across all systems
+- Ensures both root-level and nested files are found with `**/*` patterns  
+- Maintains backward compatibility
+- No performance degradation due to efficient deduplication
+
+### Test Coverage
+Added comprehensive tests to verify:
+- Both root and nested files are found with `**/*.ts`
+- No duplicate entries in results
+- Edge cases with various file extensions work correctly
+
+This fix ensures tools like `tsbuild check **/*.ts` work reliably across all systems.
