t7300: add testcase showing unnecessary traversal into ignored directory
The PNPM package manager is apparently creating deeply nested (but ignored) directory structures; traversing them is costly performance-wise, unnecessary, and in some cases is even throwing warnings/errors because the paths are too long to handle on various platforms. Add a testcase that checks for such unnecessary directory traversal. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
