I certainly tested 1.6.0.1 and does not have this problem, and it was
fixed a long time ago:

    gitignore(5): Allow "foo/" in ignore list to match directory "foo"

    A pattern "foo/" in the exclude list did not match directory
    "foo", but a pattern "foo" did.  This attempts to extend the
    exclude mechanism so that it would while not matching a regular
    file or a symbolic link "foo".  In order to differentiate a
    directory and non directory, this passes down the type of path
    being checked to excluded() function.

    A downside is that the recursive directory walk may need to run
    lstat(2) more often on systems whose "struct dirent" do not give
    the type of the entry; earlier it did not have to do so for an
    excluded path, but we now need to figure out if a path is a
    directory before deciding to exclude it.  This is especially bad
    because an idea similar to the earlier CE_UPTODATE optimization
    to reduce number of lstat(2) calls would by definition not apply
    to the codepaths involved, as (1) directories will not be
    registered in the index, and (2) excluded paths will not be in
    the index anyway.

The patch is included in 1.5.5.
