I was thinking about that earlier (well, a warning, not an error,
which presumes you can't continue). Then the questions I put above
came into my mind so I didn't bring it up. What would you suggest
calling the command?

Change the text for --ignore and .fossil-settings/ignore-glob to:
unmanaged matching files to ignore

Add another switch --exclude and .fossil-settings/exclude-glob and explain that this applies to all, managed and unmanaged files unconditionally.

But right after that you'd have to start drinking beer as my offer still stands ;-)
