Evaluate something like

(file-name-all-completions "" "~/.emacs.d/")

On my machine, this returns a list which includes ".git/". It should
not, however, because ".git/" is in completion-ignored-extensions.

Not 100% sure it's supposed to work, because it seems broken at least
since 24.2 (maybe longer).

I don't think it's supposed to filter ignored extensions, if is was the
case how one can list all the files in a directory using e.g
directory-files-recursively ?

IMO the filtering should happen (or not) in the application that use
file-name-all-completions.

I would be annoyed in my own applications if you modify
file-name-all-completion to handle ignored extensions.

So please don't do that.

Thanks.

file-name-all-completions's docstring says it does.

You can bind the relevant variables to nil locally.

Not in emacs-24.5, so applications created before emacs-25 use this
behavior, i.e ignored extensions not handled.
And it is good like this.

Of course.

This works as designed: completion-ignored-extensions only affects
file-name-completion, but not file-name-all-completions.  I've just
pushed a fix for the doc string of file-name-all-completions.  (The
ELisp manual correctly says that the variable has no effect in your
case.)

I see, thanks!

That kind of illustrates the problem of divergence between different 
kinds of documentation.

Yes, nothing new here.

Tramp does not honor `completion-ignored-extensions'. I will fix it, but
it shall go into the master branch then. Not important enough for
emacs-25.

Best regards, Michael.
