Re: "ignored" in *vc-dir* buffers

[Lars Ingebrigtsen]

OK, I've now debugged a bit.

If I edit a file under the lisp directory (but only there), I get these
weird results.

First, if I edit a file, I get the expected:

(vc-git-state "/home/larsi/src/emacs/trunk/lisp/vc/vc-git.el")
=> edited

But then if I remove the edit, then:

(vc-git-state "/home/larsi/src/emacs/trunk/lisp/vc/vc-git.el")
=> ignored

Outside the lisp directory, I get the expected:

(vc-git-state "/home/larsi/src/emacs/trunk/src/gnutls.c")
=> up-to-date

This is with "git version 2.27.0" in Debian sid.

And, indeed:

larsi@xo:~/src/emacs/trunk$ git status --porcelain --ignored -- 
lisp/vc/vc-git.el
!! lisp/vc/vc-git.elc

So...  er...  it's not an Emacs issue at all, but my git is broken?
Because "!!" means ignored.  Or is my Emacs tree broken?
