Hello, I found what look like a bug in git status: `git status -unormal foo[b]/` won't output the content of the directory foo[b] when `git status -unormal foo/` will output the content of the directory foo: $ mkdir 'foo[b]' $ touch 'foo[b]/bar' $ git status -unormal 'foo[b]/' On branch master Untracked files: (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed) foo[b]/ nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track) $ mkdir 'foo' $ touch 'foo/bar' $ git status -unormal 'foo/' On branch master Untracked files: (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed) foo/bar nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track) The documentation of git status contain nothing about treating bracket specially. Quoting the brackets do not solve the problem. see https://github.com/magit/magit/issues/1512 for discussion about it (in the case of git status --porcelain). -- Rémi Vanicat -- 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
