You need the form, if the folder which should be ignored is in a unversioned
folder.
Imagine you want to commit a structure like foo\bar\Fred\ from the foo\ level,
which is the only one versioned. All folders below including bar\ are
unversioned and you want to ignore Fred\. Now you need the above mentioned form.
Otherwise Fred\ will not be ignored.
