Hrm, I do not see the point of "eventual" there, by the way.  Are
there other kinds of error files?

Is there an implication of having always 4 spaces here to l10n/i18n
here?  I am wondering if it should be _("\n    %s").

There needs a strbuf_release(&err_msg) somewhere before leaving this
scope to avoid leaking its buffer, no?

The innermost if/else no longer needs braces.  Also even though it
may push it slightly over 80-column, I think the files_submodule
side of string_list_append() is easier to read if it were on a
single line.

Hmph.  I wonder if we want to properly i18n plurals, depending on
the number of files, e.g.

        print_error_files(&files_staged,
                          Q_("the following file has staged "
                             "content different from both the\n"
                             "file and the HEAD:",
                             "the following files have staged "
                             "content different from both the\n"
                             "file and the HEAD:", files_staged.nr),
                           _("\n(use -f to force removal)"), &errs);

This was not a problem back when we showed one error message per one
path, but with this patch, it starts to matter.

It is easier to read if it is done this way:

        test_expect_success 'rm files with different staged content' '
                cat >expect <<\-EOF &&
                error: the following files have staged content different from both the
                file and the HEAD:
                    bar.txt
                    foo.txt
                (use -f to force removal)
                EOF
                echo content1 >foo.txt &&

Two and half points to note:

 (0) no whitespace between redirection << and its source
     (the end-of-here-text marker in this case).

 (1) by quoting the end-of-here-text marker with a backslash '\',
     you tell the readers that there is no variable substitution in
     it, which reduces the mental burden on them.

 (2) by using a dash '-' before the end-of-here-text marker, you can
     align the body of here text with a leading tab (HT).

> +	test_must_fail git rm foo.txt bar.txt 2>actual &&

This should be test_i18ncmp as the error messages are marked for
l10n.

Other than that, looks nicely done.
