Deleting files

Hi,

Are files supposed to be continually tracked after commiting after deleting them?

git status reports that files have been deleted as expected (they're not there anymore). I commit as wanted. I do some more work, but then git status still reports that the same files have been deleted. As such I have a historical list of "deleted" files that I may have been working on previously and had committed.

I have to run git rm to erase these entries, but I've no idea how that affects my history.

Shouldn't git add/commit remember that a file has been deleted previously?

On a related note, once I do git rm on one of these files, git status sometimes reports that these rm'd files have been renamed to a new one instead! What's going on? :(
