I, for one, heartily endorse this change. Semi-relatedly, I have an ignore glob set that ignores "*~" backup files that Emacs makes, as many do. However, I often work in a pattern of creating a bunch of files with the same base name and different extensions - such as foo.c and foo.h - and then have to do "fossil add foo.c foo.h" as "fossil add foo.*" will pick up the .c~ and .h~ files as well as the .c and .h. Even if I put an explicit "--ignore" on the command line, which I am presuming is only applied when fossil recurs into a subdirectory and gets its own directory listings of files. So, should "fossil add" automatically strip (perhaps with a warning) files passed to its command line that match the ignore-glob, unless a "--force" is specified?
