I posted this first as a question on the EGit forum. After not getting a reply, I am trying in bugzilla...

=====

I have a repository [1] with one plugin. I used EGit UI to add build folders to the ignore list. This has generated .gitignore file with [2] content. Despite this, when I invoke EGit commit action, the dialog lists add operations for all the files in the build directories.

/.apt_generated

Closing this as you reported [1] you can't reproduce this problem.
