I agree with everything up to here.  But I believe these people were
_already_ paying attention to "git status" output from the commandline
and in the editor window when they run "git commit", to notice other
changes they forgot to add, too.  I don't think this series would
inconvenience them.

Hoping I can find time to look over the other changes soon.

Thanks,
Jonathan
