Yeah, it looks like everybody suddenly realizes this regression soon
after the release, not before :( This has been reported three times so
far. You may want to check the discussion (and hopefully progress
soon) in this thread:

We really need to add some real world use cases of gitignore in the test suite.

That's because the vast majority of users only use the releases (maybe
more than 90%?). It's not a big deal, that's what 1.8.3.1 is for :)
(also, that's why we shouldn't worry to death about imaginary users,
our real users will gladly point out when we have screwed up).

Oups! I'm sorry I searched the archives but did not find this one.
Thanks for your reply and the link

 We really need to add some real world use cases of gitignore in the test 
 suite.

There is kind of one included in to my post (minus the assert statements).
