Hi Buga,

Thanks for your reply. The command you mentioned is something I already
tried.

Interestingly I can not reproduce the problem again. I will raise my
concern again if I can successfully create the problem consistently.

Thanks.

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).
