title: Force find to look through all subdirectories
body: <p>I searched for log files on a server using <code>find</code>, like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>find . -name "*log*"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This didn't return anything useful, so I looked through some configuration files and discovered some log files in a subdirectory called <code>build/private</code>.</p>
  
  <p>If I pass that directory name directly to <code>find</code>, it will discover those log files:</p>
  
  <pre><code>find ./build/private -name "*log*"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So it looks like <code>find</code> is ignoring some subdirectories by default. Therefore, I'm not sure what other log files I'm missing.</p>
  
  <p>I looked through <code>find</code>'s manual page but I didn't see any options that would force it to go through all subdirectories and look at all files.</p>
  
  <p>Is there such an option?</p>
  
  <p>Why does it not look through all subdirectories?</p>
