How to display ignored files of the whole project using only core git?

I've tried:

git-ls-files -o -i -X .git/info/exclude

and it only showed me the excluded files in the current directory...

Well, since you're telling it to only show excluded files, it will also 
only show excluded directories.

Which is admittedly insane. You don't want to exclude directories. Or 
maybe you do, but then we should add the "/" to the end before we do the 
exclusion.

This patch (untested) will never exclude directories. Which may or may not 
be the right thing.

For me it seems to do the right thing, although I have no need to exclude directories.
If I really needed to, I'd say something like:

/excluded_dir/*

in .git/info/exclude, and it would show the files as being excluded.

I actually quiet like it how it is.

What's wrong with .gitignore in the excluded_dir containing everything
you don't want to see, or even just "*"?

I might have sounded negative or happy with status quo in my
earlier messages but that was not intended.  I am swamped and
have not formed an opinion.

With the git.git repository itself, I tried:

$ cat /var/tmp/i
*.c
$ git ls-files -i -X /var/tmp/i | head -n 6
apply.c
arm/sha1.c
blob.c
cat-file.c
check-ref-format.c
checkout-index.c

So I am not sure what you mean.  You wanted to "display ignored
files of the whole project", right?  I am getting arm/sha1.c
here in my output, so I do not understand the issue here...

Wrong. I wanted to display files that are ignored and not checked in.
(unlike your example)

That's why I used the -o (--others).

Try your example with git repo's .gitignore and any .o file.
I would like to use it for backup~ hunting purposes in a script
and not have to worry about find and other less portable tools.

Wow, you have a strong voice.

You asked it to show either ignored or others.

I usually do this for that:

	git ls-files -o '*~'

So here's the catch? I don't think so.
But the manpage isn't totally clear in this matter.

When I specify just -o, it gives me files which weren't ignored too.
-o -i gives me only ignored files.
Plain -i returns nothing.

With git directory, compare:
git-ls-files -o -i -X .gitignore

with:
git-ls-files -o

The remainder is:
git-ls-files -o -X .gitignore

I have the documentation built.
(Yes, I'm not including its .gitignore on purpose)

Also good. I have *~ in ignored too, so I think -o -i will suffice.

I wanted to confirm that your product "Git" is free for the US government to use? If you cannot answer this question, would you know who could?

Thank you very much for your time,

As far as _we_ are concerned, anybody should be able to use it for free
(as both in "libre" and in "gratis" sense); it is licensed under GPLv2 and
the copy of the license is found in COPYING file. Some part is licensed
under BSD license, but that shouldn't change the picture.

Having said that we are in no position of knowing if the branch of the US
goverment you work for has its own restriction regarding its software
procurement process (e.g. "It has to be produced by an ISO 14000 certified
facility").  So...
