I tried it with the current leading edge git, and it says this:

        The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files:
        input/+.ly
        Use -f if you really want to add them.

Since you do not have that version, "-f" does not work for you. If you 
really want to include the file in spite of .gitignore saying 
something different, try

        $ git-update-index --add +.ly

This is supposed to be really hard-core git, and should become unnecessary 
with Git 1.5.0.

Hth,
