Description

Hey.

Documentation claims:

ignored
Whether to show ignored files with untracked files. Ignored when untracked_files == “no”

However, the option does not seem to be ignored, i.e. with epository.status(untracked_files="no", ignored=True) one gets ignored files in the dict.

Cheers,
Chris.

Research direction

Start with the status documentation at pygit2.org/index_file.html#status and reproduce the reported repository.status(untracked_files="no", ignored=True) behavior. Trace the status API handling for these options and verify that ignored files are absent when untracked_files is "no".
