Task is not tracking deleted generated files

Hello, I think I found the case to reopen this issue: https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/238 I want the Task to re-trigger gen, when I'm running clean:

gen:
  sources:
    - protocol/**/*.proto
  generates:
    - pkg/protocol/**/*.pb.go
  cmds:
    - buf generate

clean:
  cmds:
    - rm -rf pkg/protocol/*

gen:
  sources:
    - protocol/**/*.proto
  generates:
    - pkg/protocol/**/*.pb.go
  cmds:
    - buf generate

clean:
  cmds:
    - rm -rf pkg/protocol/*

Task and tracking dir modtime

Hello. Let's say I'm changing tools/cmd/main.go and want to make a task that will track it by pattern. I know that this pattern will track any file in dir recursively.

  check:
    sources:
      - tools/**/*
    cmds:
      - echo 'changed'
    method: 'timestamp'

  check:
    sources:
      - tools/**/*
    cmds:
      - echo 'changed'
    method: 'timestamp'

But these patterns will not, even if dir modtime being updated when any internal content has been changed.

  check:
    sources:
      - tools/*
    cmds:
      - echo 'changed'
    method: 'timestamp'
  check:
    sources:
      - tools/cmd
    cmds:
      - echo 'changed'
    method: 'timestamp'

  check:
    sources:
      - tools/*
    cmds:
      - echo 'changed'
    method: 'timestamp'
  check:
    sources:
      - tools/cmd
    cmds:
      - echo 'changed'
    method: 'timestamp'

Is this intentional? For compatibility purposes with different file systems?

Run command for each source found by pattern without find.

Hello, is there a coreutils-free alternative for something like:

gen:
  sources: [internal/*_src.go]
  generates: [internal/*_gen.go]
  vars:
    LIST: {sh: find internal -name '*_src.go'}
  cmds:
    - for: {var: LIST}
    - cmd: go tool gen {{.ITEM}}

gen:
  sources: [internal/*_src.go]
  generates: [internal/*_gen.go]
  vars:
    LIST: {sh: find internal -name '*_src.go'}
  cmds:
    - for: {var: LIST}
    - cmd: go tool gen {{.ITEM}}

Supply non-constant arguments to dynamic variable

Hello I want to use charm/gum with task. I.e. I want to download binary if it not exist and use it with custom arguments. Something like this, but that piece is not valid config. What should I do?

version: "3"
silent: true
vars:
  DIR: cache
  GUM:
    sh: go run github.com/charmbracelet/gum@latest {{.ARGS}}
tasks:
  clean:
    cmds:
      - |
        {{.GUM}} confirm "Clean?" && rm -rf {{.DIR}}

version: "3"
silent: true
vars:
  DIR: cache
  GUM:
    sh: go run github.com/charmbracelet/gum@latest {{.ARGS}}
tasks:
  clean:
    cmds:
      - |
        {{.GUM}} confirm "Clean?" && rm -rf {{.DIR}}
