I think the way the codepath for -i feeds path to excluded() is wrong. The excluded() interface relies on the fact that the caller has already checked foo/ before calling it for foo/bar; when asked to see if "foo/bar" is excluded, it does not consider if "foo/" is excluded---the caller should have already checked it. The loop for cached/stage case in builtin/ls-files.c::show_files() needs to learn to be more careful when DIR_SHOW_IGNORED is set in dir->flags. It needs to call a new helper function that notices that the check is walking into a different directory from the path it checked last, and feed leading directories to excluded(), or something like that, instead of directly calling !excluded(). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
