Bug Description

Transcript:

mithrandi@verdant:~/tmp> bzr init foo
Created a standalone tree (format: 2a)
mithrandi@verdant:~/tmp> cd foo
mithrandi@verdant:~/tmp/foo> touch foo
mithrandi@verdant:~/tmp/foo> bzr add foo
adding foo
mithrandi@verdant:~/tmp/foo> bzr shelve
Shelve adding file "foo"? [yNfq?] y
Selected changes:
-D foo
Shelve 1 change(s)? [yNfq?]

I don't understand why shelve needs to prompt me twice for the addition, and I don't understand the meaning of "-D foo"; it looks like it should have something to do with deleting a file, not adding a file.
