Seems error/design is as follows:


If I create  directories in a folder tree BEFORE i do an open of the
repository in that file tree; directories are ignored on the  addremove
command even if non-empty, root files are okay and are picked up.

If I open an empty repository FIRST in the root then add new folders (and
file content in them) in that root tree then all works as advertised for
all sub directories

I thought I could create a code/directory structure first then OPEN the
empty repository in the root and do an addremove to do the first check in
based on the files already on the tree. This only works for the root not
the sub folders, they are ignored! Pity makes it hard to turn existing tree
into initial repository content which I assumed.

Thanks for help
