Severity: minor
Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to
get to this before the next grep release, but is a reasonable thing to
do so I'll resend this to bug-grep so that it gets a proper bug report
number (we're using a new bug-reporting system).

Hello,
I would like to report a bug in the implementation of the --exclude-dir
option in GNU grep 2.10 version.
If running > grep --exclude-dir "/hdd1/lib/udev/devices/" -r eads /hdd1
It will still examine /hdd1/lib/udev/devices.
However, if running > grep --exclude-dir "/hdd1/lib/udev/devices" -r eads
/hdd1
Then, that folder I wanted to include is actually ignored. I think that the
extra slash at the end, while unnecessary, must not break down the
---exclude-dir feature.
Happy to help fix the bug!
Best,
Khaled.
