ls-files already lists files relative to cwd. What you need is a way to
specify that you want all files, not just those beneath cwd.

I think you've both been missing out on the discussions about
--full-tree and refspec notation for that...

Of course ":" has a meaning. "git show HEAD:" lists all files at the
top-level of the tree at HEAD. That is exactly why ":" has been
suggested to denote the top-level for pathspecs also. Note that this is
much more general than just an option for ls-files.
