Yep, that's the gist of it.

More specifically: the contents of untracked dirs have to be picked up
so that clean -d can distinguish between purely untracked dirs and
untracked dirs which also contain ignored files. In the case of a
purely untracked dir, clean -d can remove the dir itself, and should
just skip over all the dir's contents; in the case of a mixed
untracked dir, clean -d should not remove the dir itself, just the
untracked contents.

Is there a reason to ensure specifically a/b/ is tested, or are the
current tests, which do cover the a/b (i.e. where a/b is a file, not
where a/b/ is a dir) case, insufficient for some reason?

Agreed on the helper function. On the src-dst thing: I considered it,
but I figured another O(n) set of array moves was unnecessary. I guess
this is one of those cases where premature optimization doesn't make
sense?
