    $ git init
    $ mkdir foo
    $ touch a.txt b.txt bar.txt foo/qux.txt

    $ git clean -f bar.txt foo/qux.txt
    Removing bar.txt

Where the behaviour they expected would be:

    $ git clean -f bar.txt foo/qux.txt
    Removing bar.txt
    Removing foo/qux.txt

Sending this "patch" as an excuse to not forget this bug report.
