No, you found one of the longstanding bugs in dir.c:read_directory().
The funny thing is that I just sent out a message pointing out
bogus handling of per-directory exclude files in ls-files last
night. Somehow people have a tendency to encounter the bugs in
the same vicinity independently.
The initial loop in read_directory() to push per-directory
exclusion elements into the stack for directories above the
given base forgets that push() does not make a copy of the path
given as its parameter but stores the pointer to it instead, so
multiple calls to push() need to use separate path buffers.
Here is a tentative patch. I do not think the patch is broken
but I call it tentative because:
- It is ugly -- I never get this "walking path delimited by
slashes" loop right;
- It leaks the path buffer given to push(), but it is inherent
in the design of "push/pop exclude per-directory" API. They
were designed to be called from the recursive directory
walking, and the path buffers are placed on the function call
stack to be reclaimed automatically upon function return;
