Hello, I first asked on stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26933761/python-sh-module-and-git-try-to-add-more-files-then-in-command/26934517#26934517) about this behaviour. Then on the conversation that happened on the git-users mailing list other agreed that this behaviour is probably not as intended. Steps to reproduce: In bash (not sure this is bash specific) do: git add '' (that's to apostrophes, an empty argument) Results same as doing git add . Expected no files added or error about not finding file '' Hope this helps.
