Hi,

My hunch is that if you supply the relative path of the files from the
root of the branch to commit() then it will work.

The reason smart_add() works I think is that it is "smart". If you just
used add() then you would have the same problem.

You may like to look in to the tests in bzrlib/tests/ as they
demonstrate the use of the API. Also, looking at some other plugins
may help.

Thanks,

James
