This means you should never need to explicitly add a directory, they ll just get added when you add a file in the directory. The second sentence explains the rationale behind this feature. But in this case, Bob mistakenly added a single file, and that ended up adding the whole directory. By contrast, "cvs add" is explicitly non-recursive, AFAIR. The feature is clearly a convenience in the case where you are not making a mistake. Should `bzr add' ask for confirmation before doing this?
