   "ignore" will add paths to `.gitignore` and those paths will be shown in 
gray. "Exclude from commit"  predates git and is essentially similar to the git 
staging area. You hit show changes, exclude what you don't want. then commit. 
Paths you excluded will be rendered like:

   This is not meant to permanently ignore files, you can even include them 
again while still being in the commit window (check box). Rendering excluded 
paths in the files tree differently might not be worth it since it could be 
confusing to have to distinguish between actually ignored files and temporarily 
excluded files.
