Thanks for finding this dupe, :ahochheiden! It's actually a bug in mercurial. They do a few things with the regexes (like adding `.*` at the beginning, and merging all lines in `.hgignore` in one big regex. I left more details in the this ticket[1]. I tested their most recent fix[2] and it worked fine on my end.
