unable to make include / exclude work

$ terragrunt --version
terragrunt version v0.36.3

I have the following tree:

.

When running the command terragrunt run-all validate --terragrunt-include-dir global/ I expected that everything under global directory would be validated, but nothing is detected:

$ terragrunt run-all validate  --terragrunt-include-dir global/
INFO[0002] The stack at <repo_dir> will be processed in the following order for command validate:
$

I have been trying to use --terragrunt-include-dir and/or --terragrunt-exclude-dir without success. Am I missing something ?

Hi, it is also not working for case like --terragrunt-include-dir global/* ?

I tried the following:

$ cd infra/
$ terragrunt run-all validate  --terragrunt-include-dir dev
INFO[0001] The stack at <repo_dir>/infra will be processed in the following order for command validate:
$ terragrunt run-all validate  --terragrunt-include-dir dev/*
INFO[0001] The stack at <repo_dir>/infra will be processed in the following order for command validate:
$
