Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
Edit the third line of this script to point to your Emacs, and then run it.
#!/bin/sh -x
EMACS=/usr/local/src/emacs-with-my-tweaks.git/src/emacs
cd /tmp
rm -rf xyzzy
mkdir xyzzy
cd xyzzy
git init
mkdir Jack Jill
touch Jack/it Jill/it
git add .
git commit -m "golly!"
echo More stuff >> Jack/it
cd Jill
git status
# You should see this output:
# On branch master
# Changed but not updated:
# (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
# (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
# modified: ../Jack/it
#
$EMACS -Q \
--eval '(cd "/tmp/xyzzy/Jill")' \
--eval '(vc-dir "/tmp/xyzzy/Jill")'
# note that we're now looking at something like
# VC backend : Git
# Working dir: /tmp/xyzzy/Jill/
# Branch : master
#
# ./
# Jack/
# edited Jack/it
#
#
# That seems a bit odd, since the name "Jack/it" doesn't name anything
# at all when interpreted relative to /tmp/xyzzy/Jill.
# Furthermore, if you move point to "Jack/it" (by typing "n" twice),
# and then invoke vc-diff by typing "=", Emacs will respond with "No
# changes between working revision and workfile", which is wrong; the
# file is indeed modified.
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/local/src/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

No changes between working revision and workfile

If there were a little guy running around inside the computer
executing our programs, he would probably have as long and
plaintive a tale to tell about his job as a federal government
employee.

This is not a vc-dir problem, but a vc-git.el problem. vc-dir just
displays whatever vc-git-dir-status returns. In this case
vc-git-dir-status should not return anything about "Jack".

I'm guessing this is just an artifact because of the previous
problem...
