For git clean, if a directory is entirely untracked and the user did not
specify -d (corresponding to DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO), then we usually do
not want to remove that directory and thus do not recurse into it.
However, if the user manually specified specific (or even globbed) paths
somewhere under that directory to remove, then we need to recurse into
the directory to make sure we remove the relevant paths under that
directory as the user requested.
Note that this does not mean that the recursed-into directory will be
added to dir->entries for later removal; as of a few commits earlier in
this series, there is another more strict match check that is run after
returning from a recursed-into directory before deciding to add it to the
list of entries. Therefore, this will only result in files underneath
the given directory which match one of the pathspecs being added to the
entries list.
Two notes of potential interest to future readers:
* If we wanted to only recurse into a directory when it is specifically
matched rather than matched-via-glob (e.g. '*.c'), then we could do
so via making the final non-zero return in match_pathspec_item be
MATCHED_RECURSIVELY instead of MATCHED_RECURSIVELY_LEADING_PATHSPEC.
(Note that the relative order of MATCHED_RECURSIVELY_LEADING_PATHSPEC
and MATCHED_RECURSIVELY are important for such a change.) I was
leaving open that possibility while writing an RFC asking for the
behavior we want, but even though we don't want it, that knowledge
might help you understand the code flow better.
* There is a growing amount of logic in read_directory_recursive() for
deciding whether to recurse into a subdirectory. However, there is a
comment immediately preceding this logic that says to recurse if
instructed by treat_path(). It may be better for the logic in
read_directory_recursive() to ultimately be moved to treat_path() (or
another function it calls, such as treat_directory()), but I have
left that for someone else to tackle in the future.
