**unversioned*** *files
trigger this behavior; unversioned files are treated as dirty.
For me, when I'm looking looking at highlights to see all of the changes,
additions, and deletions that need to be committed to the repository, I find
it very confusing when I *also* see that unversioned files are highlighted
too.
I think we might have been miscommunicating in the first emails too. Actual
use cases are a lot clearer.
Case:
- Directory containing modified and unversioned files.
- *I agree with you. Should be highlighted as dirty*
- Unversioned directory containing **only** unversioned files.
- This should **not** be highlighted as dirty. Right now it is
highlighted as dirty.
- Unversioned file within project.
- This should **not** be highlighted as dirty. Right now it is
highlighted as dirty.
