Is this exposed to fix issues with certain file systems, or just in case there may be issues, or support easily testing find without the leaf optimization? I see Jim said the current FTS implementation would make -noleaf a no-op there: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2008-12/msg00280.html cheers, Pádraig. p.s. I see that find does a stat per file on XFS, while d_type can be used to distinguish dirs there. On XFS DT_DIR is set for dirs and DT_UNKNOWN otherwise. I wonder is there some optimization we could do for that case.
