Is this actually true?  It seemed to work find for me in a quick test,
but I didn't try anything more advanced than a commit.


% hg init
% mkdir foo.d
% echo "junk" >foo.d/bar
% hg status
? foo.d/bar
% hg add foo.d/bar
% hg status
A foo.d/bar
% hg commit
% hg status
% hg verify

What operations don't work?  Is it not possible to fix those cases with
os.path.isdir()?
