36 + * The set of paths output from "git status --ignored" was tied

37 + closely with its "--untracked=<mode>" option, but now it can be

38 + controlled more flexibly. Most notably, a directory that is

39 + ignored because it is listed to be ignored in the ignore/exclude

56 + for "bisect visualize".
