It does not find any files which are excluded only due to a directory exclude. In the cases without -i we do not even have to look at files under an ignored directory. So the matching rules are not applied correctly in this case. We have the same problem with git ls-files -i -o, unless you also specify --directory (in which case, again, we do not need to look at files under the ignored directory).
