Hello,

I found what look like a bug in git status:
`git status -unormal foo[b]/` won't output the content of the directory
foo[b] when `git status -unormal foo/` will output the content of the
directory foo:=20

  $ mkdir 'foo[b]'
  $ touch 'foo[b]/bar'
  $ git status -unormal 'foo[b]/'
  On branch master
  Untracked files:
    (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

          foo[b]/

  nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to=
 track)
  $ mkdir 'foo'
  $ touch 'foo/bar'
  $ git status -unormal 'foo/'
  On branch master
  Untracked files:
    (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

          foo/bar

  nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to=
 track)

The documentation of git status contain nothing about treating bracket
specially. Quoting the brackets do not solve the problem.

see https://github.com/magit/magit/issues/1512 for discussion about it
(in the case of git status --porcelain).
