Use the template below when reporting bugs. Please, make sure that
you're running the latest stable Projectile and that the problem you're reporting
hasn't been reported (and potentially fixed) already.

Remove all of the placeholder text in your final report!

Expected behavior

for example of linux source code tree.
.projectile to set ignore file and include files:

expect to include only drivers/nvme and ignore all other contents in drivers directory.

so i use the :

+/drivers/nvme

Actual behavior

all files in /drivers were include

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. git clone to download linux source repo
2. create .projectile file in the repo dir
3. add following content:
   +/drivers/nvme
   -/Documents
4. eval : (print (projectile-ignored-directories-rel))
   will see ignored dirs were not contains expected sub-dirs of /drivers

Actually it works, I had a leading space in my .projectile....

@ChinaXing Please check the value of variable projectile-indexing-method

If the value is alien projectile will ignore your .projectile file.
Set it to native and projectile will respect your .projectile file
