Note also that I do _not_ suggest using --system. This option forces you to run git as root on sane systems, which I think is wrong. Rather use "--global" to make it globally available to _you_. > But I'm wondering whether we'd want to include it in git by default > (instead of having to tell confused users to add the alias). I recommend against that, too. All too often, I have some temporary files in the working tree, and I'll be dimmed if I'm the only one. So "addremove" adds too much possibility for pilot errors. My opinion here is not set in stone, though. Maybe you can convince me.
