6a1ad32519 git-add -f: allow adding otherwise ignored files.
Instead of just warning, refuse to add otherwise ignored files
by default, and allow it with an -f option.

e23ca9e1f9 git-add: add ignored files when asked explicitly.
One thing many people found confusing about git-add was that a
file whose name matches an ignored pattern could not be added to
the index.  With this, such a file can be added by explicitly
spelling its name to git-add.

Fileglobs and recursive behaviour do not add ignored files to
the index.  That is, if a pattern '*.o' is in .gitignore, and
two files foo.o, bar/baz.o are in the working tree:

    $ git add foo.o
    $ git add '*.o'
    $ git add bar

Only the first form adds foo.o to the index.

366bfcb68f make 'git add' a first class user friendly interface to the index
This brings the power of the index up front using a proper mental model
without talking about the index at all. See for example how all the
technical discussion has been evacuated from the git-add man page.

   Any content to be committed must be added together.  Whether that
   content comes from new files or modified files doesn't matter.  You
   just need to "add" it, either with git-add, or by providing
   git-commit with -a (for already known files only of course).

No need for a separate command to distinguish new vs modified files
please. That would only screw the mental model everybody should have
when using GIT.

e994004f93 Fix up docs where "--" isn't displayed correctly.
A bare "--" doesn't show up in man or html pages correctly
as two individual dashes unless backslashed as \--
in the asciidoc source.  Note, no backslash is needed
inside a literal block.

60ace8790f git-add: Add support for --, documentation, and test.
This adds support to git-add to allow the common -- to separate
command-line options and file names. It adds documentation and a new
git-add test case as well.

[jc: this should apply to 1.2.X maintenance series, so I reworked
 git-ls-files --error-unmatch test. ]

Its use of git-ls-files --others is very nice, but sometimes gives
surprising results, so we'd better talk about it.

215a7ad1ef Big tool rename.
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch.  The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:

  (1) git-*-script are no more.  The commands installed do not
      have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
      something is implemented as a shell script or not.

  (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
      'index' if that is what they mean.

There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support  is expected to be removed in the near
future.
