It looks like it is actually creating the stash correctly, but it's
just not deleting the ignored directory.
But, there is a small problem with your command sequence...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why are these entries here?

if your .gitignore file looks like this:
$ cat .gitignore
*.ignore
ignore-dir/
then why are those items showing up under "Untracked files:" in the call
to git status above? /methinks something is wrong with your .gitignore
file. It doesn't matter in this case, since --all will cause stash to
stash the untracked files regardless of whether they are ignored.

Also, in the future it would be nicer if you provided your list of
commands separately, at the beginning, linked together with &&.
This makes it easier to copy/paste into my terminal, rather than
having to extract the commands out from within the body.
Like this (slightly simplified):
git --version &&
git init &&
cat <<-\EOF >.gitignore &&
*.ignore
ignore-dir/
EOF
mkdir src &&
touch file.txt src/code.txt &&
git add . &&
git commit -m 'initial commit' &&
touch file-a.ignore src/file-b.ignore &&
echo "hello" >src/code.txt &&
mkdir ignore-dir &&
touch ignore-dir/{file.ignore,file.txt} &&
git status &&
git stash --all &&
git status || echo 'FAILURE'

That message is from git-clean, and it is the real problem.

It actually did stash the ignore-dir, it just didn't remove it from
the working directory at the end. Try deleting the ignore-dir by
hand and then applying the stash, ignore-dir and its content should
be recreated.
Something like this is probably the appropriate fix:
diff --git a/git-stash.sh b/git-stash.sh
index f4e6f05..a2d4b4d 100755
--- a/git-stash.sh
+++ b/git-stash.sh
@@ -240,7 +240,7 @@ save_stash () {
test "$untracked" = "all" && CLEAN_X_OPTION=-x || CLEAN_X_OPTION
if test -n "$untracked"
then
- git clean --force --quiet $CLEAN_X_OPTION
+ git clean --force --quiet -d $CLEAN_X_OPTION
fi
if test "$keep_index" = "t" && test -n $i_tree
Needs tests.
