For anyone who wants to take a shot at this, the reason this happens
is because when "add d/file foo" is invoked, when add.c:cmd_add()
calls fill_directory(), d/ gets added to dir->ignored, so add_files()
complains. I'm not sure if that's *supposed* to happen, and the issue
is somewhere else, or the call to read_directory_recursive() from
fill_directory() doesn't properly respect the pathspec.
