I notice that "git ls-files -o" doesn't do normal ignore-processing, so
for instance all my .o and editor backup files show up in the output...
Is that expected or is it a bug (I tried versions "1.5.2.4" and
"1.5.3.rc3.91.g5c75-dirty")?

If I do:

   git-ls-files -o --exclude-per-directory=.gitignore --exclude-from=$HOME/.gitignore

it works more like I'd expect.

Thanks,

-Miles
