title: VSCode files.associations
body: <p>I have some <code>.txt</code> files in a subfolder of my project which contain <code>SQL</code> code. I want <code>SQL</code> syntax highlighting so I added this to my <del>workspace</del> folder settings:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-json prettyprint-override"><code>{
      "files.associations": {
          "**/somefolder/*.txt": "sql" 
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works when there are the two stars in front of the folder name. But <code>somefolder</code> actually is a folder direct under my project's root. </p>
  
  <p>Why can I not write the glob like <code>somefolder/**/*.txt</code>?</p>
