No, but it was never my intent to say otherwise. What is "correct" here? E.g., 'find' will find _all_ the files, including the ignored one -- is that "correct"? > If backends other than Git (and maybe Hg) can't return untracked > files Which backend cannot do that? Bzr can (you just need to call it twice), and the other two also can. So I think we have no problem here. > We could make up some performance using filenotify and caching, so that > 'find', though slower, would at least be called infrequently. That's over-engineering, I think.
