delete/ignore does not delete folder from repo when local copy is kept

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. create a repo with nested folders containing non-empty files
  2. commit everything into the repo
  3. right click on a nested folder, select delete and add to ignore list
    3a. use the .gitignore file in the containing directory
    3b. keep local copy

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expect folder/files to be deleted from repo, is not
cloning the repo results in the deleted/ignored folder and files within

What version of TortoiseGit and msysgit are you using? On
what operating system?
Windows7-64bit
TortoiseGit 1.8.1.0 (TortoiseGit-1.8.1.0-64bit.msi)
git version 1.8.1.msysgit.1 (Git-1.8.1.2-preview20130201.exe)

Please provide any additional information below.
ignoring the file folder before the initial commit works properly, as does deleting the local copy when doing a delete/ignore but the delete and ignore does not work when keeping the local
