Maybe a dumb question, but is this cut-and-paste verbatim? If so, then
perhaps s/includ/include/ would help?
With that change, your example works for me.

If it's not the typo, then possibly there are symlinks involved? We'll
run realpath() on the repository directory before matching, so your
pattern needs to take that into account.

No, there's no debug/tracing code for this feature. You'd have to run it
under gdb (break on the include_by_gitdir function).
