I'm not quite sure what you mean by "matching list". Do you mean that the path is not listed as untracked in "git status"? Are there any files inside the directory? Git will not mention empty directories, as tracks only file content, not directories. Beyond that, I cannot reproduce: $ git init $ mkdir -p '~/.config/git' $ git status -s Lack of output is expected, since there are no files. Now: $ echo content >'~/.config/git/foo' $ git status -s ?? ~/ $ git status -s -uall ?? ~/.config/git/foo This is on Linux. Are you by any chance using Git for Windows? I wonder if the recent chances to short-names like "foo~1" could have affected this. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
