$ tar --version tar (GNU tar) 1.32 Suppose structure of file system directories: ======================= ./a_dir ./a_dir/.gitgnore ./a_dir/aaa ./a_dir/bbb ./.gitignore ./xxx ./yyy ======================= ./.gitignore contains : xxx /yyy ============== ./a_dir/.gitgnore aaa /bbb ===================
In this case, `tar -c --exclude-vcs-ignores --exclude-vcs ./a_dir` works OK except ./a_dir/bbb is not ignored, which is the bug. git actually ignores ./a_dir/bbb -- Segmentation fault
