Are you saying (for example) `git status -uall` doesn`t show "app/a" for you anymore, or you`re just confused by its output (or one from `git check-ignore -v app/a`)? Mentioning your Git version might be good as well. I`ve tested your case with version 2.16.1.windows.1, and it seems to work as expected (and described by the docs).
