This was a really simple fix: just pass the right flag to git-ls-files. Since the output has a trailing \0, split() gives us an empty string at the end of the list that we have to throw away. (Curiously, there was an empty string at the end before this change too, but it disappeared somehow.) This fixes bug 9891.
