[O] Bug: Org-agenda-files replaces directories with explicit filenames [8.2.5h (8.2.5h-30-gdd810b-elpa @ /home/sindikat/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20140303/)]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.


I have a directory tasks/ in org-agenda-files variable. When i add a
file to org-agenda-files variable through C-c [ command
(org-agenda-file-to-front), the directory path is replaced by paths of
the files, that are currently in that directory. It is bad, because when
i add some files to tasks/ later on, they will not contribute to my
agenda.

Actually I don't understand the problem: the command adds a file to
the list of agenda files, not the entire directory. Adding the entire
directory is not what most users would want. What I'm missing?

Actually, Bernt Hansen's paper suggests that it's easier to put
directories into the org-agenda-files list so that he can just have a
few places where all his agendas are kept and anytime he adds a new file
to his list of agendas, he doesn't have to change his configuration and,
so, doesn't forget the new file.
