Since "git ls-files" doesn't really pass down any details on what it
really wants done to the directory walking code, the directory walking
code doesn't really know whether the caller wants to know about gitlink
directories, or whether it wants to just know about ignored files.
So the directory walking code will return those gitlink directories unless
the caller has explicitly told it not to ("dir->show_other_directories"
tells the directory walker to only show "other" directories).
This kind of confuses "git ls-files -o", because
- it didn't really expect to see entries listed that were already in the
index, unless they were unmerged, and would die on that unexpected
setup, rather than just "continue".
- it didn't know how to match directory entries with the final "/"
This trivial change updates the "show_other_files()" function to handle
both of these issues gracefully. There really was no reason to die, when
the obviously correct thing for the function was to just ignore files it
already knew about (that's what "other" means here!).

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
