Looks same to what I have in the proposed updates branch, so we
are on the same page.  Thanks.

I have been unsure about the name "--directory", like you said.
The most accurate one I thought of so far is:

  --dont-recurse-into-directories-without-tracked-files

but it is way too long.  We cannot even say "untracked
directories" (we do not track directories) to shorten it a bit.
