Now that 'git add' is considered a first-class UI for 'update-index'
and that the git add documentation states "Even modified files must
be added to the set of changes about to be committed" we should
make the output of 'git status' align with that documentation and
common usage.
So now we see a status output such as:
# Added but not yet committed:
# (will commit)
#
# new file: x
#
# Changed but not added:
# (use "git add" on files to include for commit)
#
# modified: x
#
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add" on files to include for commit)
#
# y
which just reads better in the context of using 'git add' to
manipulate a commit (and not a checkin, whatever the heck that is).
