Environment

We have been running it for a while and it was running fine but recently I can see that the directory specific rules/styles are not honored properly. I cannot exactly recollect like from which version this stopped working. For the translation directories I can see that all styles are enabled and are reporting errors.

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc/blob/main/.vale.ini

❯ vale -v vale version master

I have gone through some of the previous issues:
#403
errata-ai/vale-vscode#63
#245

But these are older and our situation worked after these fixes. So I wanted to know whether if there has been a recent changes which might have reintroduced the error?

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

git clone https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc.git vale .
Precaution it will take 30-40 minutes to complete.

We will see Vale.Spelling errors on the translation documents which are not supposed to happen as those have been disabled.

Nothing should have changed (certainly not deliberately).

Could you name one of the documents that had Vale.Spelling errors?

I tried to reproduce this by running Vale on the translation directories individually (e.g., vale documentation/content/ja) and was not able to.

And if I am not mistaken with the problem I think it is the '**' that is creating the problem. It's supposed to mean zero or more but more like it's behaving like 1 or more.

This is indeed the issue. It should be fixed in the next release.
