[PATCH v5 0/8] Directory traversal bugs

This series documents multiple fill_directory() bugs, and fixes the one that is new to 2.24.0 coming from en/clean-nested-with-ignored-topic, the rest having been around in versions of git going back up to a decade.

Changes since v4:

 * added a comment with the rationale for allocating an extra len+1 bytes
   for the dirent.

Elijah Newren (8):
  t3011: demonstrate directory traversal failures
  Revert "dir.c: make 'git-status --ignored' work within leading
    directories"
  dir: remove stray quote character in comment
  dir: exit before wildcard fall-through if there is no wildcard
  dir: break part of read_directory_recursive() out for reuse
  dir: fix checks on common prefix directory
  dir: synchronize treat_leading_path() and read_directory_recursive()
  dir: consolidate similar code in treat_directory()
