Add directory instead of files

I dont believe it is possible. However, if you set your ignores correctly,
a plain "bzr add" with no files will add all items that are currently
unknown. And if a file gets removed, "bzr commit" should notice. A bare
"bzr rm" might also work like "bzr add", but I think you can just use
commit.
Also, if you do "bzr commit --strict", bzr will refuse to commit if it sees
unknown files. So you can choose if you want to add, delete or ignore them.
