We meticulously pass the `exclude` flag to the `treat_directory()`
function so that we can indicate that files in it are excluded rather
than untracked when recursing.
But we did not yet treat submodules the same way.
Because of that, `git status --ignored --untracked` with a submodule
`submodule` in a gitignored `tracked/` would show the submodule in the
"Untracked files" section, e.g.
On branch master
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
tracked/submodule/
Ignored files:
(use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
tracked/submodule/initial.t
Instead, we would want it to show the submodule in the "Ignored files"
section:
On branch master
Ignored files:
(use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
tracked/submodule/
