Ouch! Just confirmed that on a quick test repository. This leakage of
new files from a vendor branch to the main branch seriously bends my
mental model of parallel development.
There's always brute force, a.k.a. modules. Alias modules allow
exclusion subdirs for the dirs included, which might just suffice. I
haven't tried that at the file level.
