Got busy with other stuff, and tried to fix another related bug in ls-tree which made me forget to send the match_tree_entry fix :-/ That other ls-tree bug is with recursing into subdirectories, because match_tree_entry matches even when the base is a subdirectory, but ls-tree doesn't actually want that behaviour, I think. For example: $ git ls-tree --abbrev HEAD git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl 100644 blob ddbe633 git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl $ git ls-tree --abbrev HEAD git-gui/ 100644 blob f96112d git-gui/.gitattributes 100644 blob 6483b21 git-gui/.gitignore 100755 blob b3f937e git-gui/GIT-VERSION-GEN 100644 blob 3ad8a21 git-gui/Makefile 100755 blob 12e117e git-gui/git-gui--askpass 100755 blob e018e07 git-gui/git-gui.sh 040000 tree f723285 git-gui/lib 040000 tree 73f3c34 git-gui/macosx 040000 tree 11cd1a0 git-gui/po 040000 tree 144728d git-gui/windows $ git ls-tree --abbrev HEAD git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl git-gui/ 100644 blob f96112d git-gui/.gitattributes 100644 blob 6483b21 git-gui/.gitignore 100755 blob b3f937e git-gui/GIT-VERSION-GEN 100644 blob 3ad8a21 git-gui/Makefile 100755 blob 12e117e git-gui/git-gui--askpass 100755 blob e018e07 git-gui/git-gui.sh 040000 tree f723285 git-gui/lib 100644 blob ddbe633 git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl 100644 blob b3bf15f git-gui/macosx/Info.plist 100644 blob 77d88a7 git-gui/macosx/git-gui.icns 040000 tree 11cd1a0 git-gui/po 040000 tree 144728d git-gui/windows The last ls-tree shows all entries from git-gui/macosx/, beacuse the first pattern makes it descend into that tree and all entries are matched by the git-gui/ prefix. So the combined ls-tree shows more than what the individual calls show. Seems wrong to me, but I'm unsure how to tackle that, assuming that match_tree_entry is right in allowing any base that's a subdirectory of a specified pathspec.
