Yes, patterns that only match current level should be prefixed with a
slash. There are also other cases apart from "current level only" and
"any level": foo/a* will match only second level, not any level.

I was thinking of doing like this. It's not complete (not even build)
but it shows the idea. I don't think this way it will change existing
behaviors. Performance is something I haven't thought through.

Anyway, what do you think? I'm afraid I don't have time to work on
this. The pathspec unification work still needs to be done.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] excluded_from_list: support EXC_FLAG_STARSTAR

if that flag is set, try to match all full pathname, then skip one
directory and try again until it completely fails.
