Let's help people do exactly that by making the behavior of "git
commit -a" be the default for "git commit".
Maybe we could do that _only_ if the index matches HEAD, and otherwise
keep current behavior?
So people who don't care about the index won't get tripped up, and when
you do have a dirty index, you get told about it?
Sounds sane. Especially if we couple it with a hint for the user to use
"commit -a" when he/she wants to do blanket commits.
So in essence that would mean:
If no pathspecs are given and index matches current HEAD, print out
"Nothing to commit but changes in working tree. Assuming 'git commit -a'
and then act accordingly. Carl, do you think that would satisfy the
desires of your RedHat peers? Always doing '-a' by default is terribly
wrong for those of us who actually use partial commits a lot, and it
would also rob git of a lot of its power.
