When i try to track a directory sometimes I get messages like the following:

Sometimes most of the files get ignored so the tracking becomes pretty much useless...

I don't follow. Is this a bug report or...? If your .gitignore or $HOME/gitignore-global ignores those files, why should homeshick try to track them, they can't be added to the staging area.
