[issue1089] 'hg rm dir/*; hg ci dir' won't work

[Yevgen Muntyan]

New submission from Yevgen Muntyan <muntyan at tamu.edu>:

'hg ci directory' requires some files to be left in that directory, otherwise
mercurial says "abort: file foo not found!". This makes it pretty hard to remove
a directory.

test$ hg init
test$ mkdir foo
test$ touch foo/file1 foo/file2
test$ hg add foo; hg ci -m 1
adding foo/file1
adding foo/file2
test$ hg rm foo
removing foo/file1
removing foo/file2
test$ hg ci foo
abort: file foo not found!
