Looks to have been fixed by 1.11, probably by Mauro Tortonesi when he did some rearrangement of this code and added some testing.

I've added an explicit test for this for mainline in 03c935cd97b3.

I'm thinking this may be a coding error, rather than a documentation one; reassigning the bug category accordingly. Should probably be confirmed with previous maintainers on the list.

Hello,

a forwarded bug report from http://bugs.debian.org/215137

"I have a test web site with the following directory structure:

/Tmp
 index.html
 /also has spaces
   index.html
 /has space
   index.html
 /has,comma
   index.html

Doing recursive retrieval on http://ksvanhorn.com/Tmp/index.html with an option of -X "/Tmp/has" excludes the "/has space" and "/has,comma" subdirectories, in contradiction to what the man page and info page claim, which is that -X takes a list of DIRECTORIES, not DIRECTORY PREFIXES.
"

thx.
