It was to avoid breaking backwards compatibility, since passing files with --refresh currently has a different meaning. But if you think we can change that, then sure, it would be much nicer. > - why not a pathspec or glob, similar to what ls-files gets? I'm not sure, would this really belong in update-index since it currently always requires explicit pathnames? Or should it be in a higher-level command like git-add --refresh? -- Alexandre Julliard julliard@xxxxxxxxxx - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
