Hi! Sorry for bugging you, but I noticed something a little peculiar about
grep that I wasn't expecting, and I'm not sure if this is a bug or not.
I've been trying to use grep in one of my scripts to exclude files from
any directories starting with Documentation/output using --exclude-dir.
Example:
Just sending this here again, since I realized that my original response to my
own message that was sent to bug-grep@gnu.org probably did not get carried
over into the bug tracker (if it did, apologies for the extra noise):

Oh whoops, almost forgot to mention the version of grep I'm using:
grep-3.1-8.fc29 on Fedora 29
I've also checked through the source files for Fedora's grep package, and
confirmed there's no patches getting applied that would modify the behavior of
--exclude and friends.
