DESCRIPTION
-----------
Remove files from the working tree and from the index. The
files have to be identical to the tip of the branch, and no
updates to its contents must have been placed in the staging
area (aka index). When --cached is given, the staged content has to
match either the tip of the branch *or* the file on disk.
Remove files from the index, or from the working tree and the index.
`git rm` will not remove a file from just your working directory.
(There is no option to remove a file only from the work tree
and yet keep it in the index; use `/bin/rm` if you want to do that.)
The files being removed have to be identical to the tip of the branch,
and no updates to their contents can be staged in the index,
though that default behavior can be overridden with the `-f` option.
When '--cached' is given, the staged content has to
match either the tip of the branch or the file on disk,
allowing the file to be removed from just the index.
OPTIONS

<file>...::
Files to remove. Fileglobs (e.g. `*.c`) can be given to
remove all matching files. Also a leading directory name

given to remove all files in the directory, recursively,
but this requires `-r` option to be given for safety.

file glob characters, you may need to shell-escape them.
A leading directory name
(e.g. `dir` to remove `dir/file1` and `dir/file2`) can be
given to remove all files in the directory, and recursively
all sub-directories,
but this requires the `-r` option to be explicitly given.
-f::
Override the up-to-date check.

Don't actually remove any file(s). Instead, just show

This option can be used to tell the command to remove
the paths only from the index, leaving working tree
files.
Use this option to unstage and remove paths only from the index.
Working tree files, whether modified or not, will be
left alone.

Exit with a zero status even if no files matched.

The <file> list given to the command can be exact pathnames,
file glob patterns, or leading directory names. The command
removes only the paths that are known to git. Giving the name of
a file that you have not told git about does not remove that file.
File globbing matches across directory boundaries. Thus, given
two directories `d` and `d2`, there is a difference between
using `git rm \'d\*\'` and `git rm \'d/\*\'`, as the former will
also remove all of directory `d2`.

Remove all git-*.sh scripts that are in the index.
Because this example lets the shell expand the asterisk

does not remove `subdir/git-foo.sh`.
