the gitignore rules work so that if a directory is ignored, all files in that directory are ignored. While that behavior isn't clearly documented in gitignore, this behavior is consistent across all git tools (status, ls-files, ...).

An exception is that listing the ignored files using "ls-files -i" doesn't behave the same way.

example:
$ mkdir d
$ touch d/f
$ echo /d/ > .gitignore
$ git ls-files -o --exclude-standard
.gitignore #d/f is correctly not listed
$ git ls-files -i --exclude-standard
#no output

d/f isn't listed even though it is treated as an ignored file by all other git tools. That seems inconsistent to me. Is that behavior intentionally or is this a bug?

A very similar question was asked before:

I have a local repository and want to change the master branch to a server git. (I just don't want to delete all files in repository and then clone the server files)How to do that? I guess I have to fetch server data into local directory, merge an push it. Can someone please explain me how to do?
