You send the report, and you may or may not get a response (just as you may or may not have somebody respond to you in a bug tracker). Probably nobody has had a chance to look at it yet. If there is a history to the bug (which there is in this case), it is sometimes helpful to cc the previous participants to see if they are still interested in it. > > I think I've been bitten by a bug in git ls-files - committed > > directories (and files therein) which are matched by a "dir/" > > gitignore rule are not shown by "git ls-files --exclude-standard > > -i", although they should be.
