git ignore logic does not work as advertised
Hi, I'm using vcsh[1] to have my dotfiles in GIT. With that I use a .gitignore file referenced by core.excludesfile that looks like this: # ignore everything by default * # but do not ignore emacs stuff !.emacs.d/ # but than again please ignore backup files inside the .emacs.d folder .emacs.d/backups Now I'd expect git status to show everything in .emacs.d but not to show .emacs.d/backups. However the .emacs.d/backups folder is still shown in git status. I'd say that this is not in line with the man page and might be considered a bug.
