This probably is a borderline with feaping creaturism. What's the
use of
it in a real workflow that you need this for?
"git add -u" may be too broad in that it also adds anything
modified, but
so is --if-missing too broad in that it removes anything removed,
and if
you are going to limit by giving pathspecs _anyway_, then...
Old timers might just do:
git diff --name-only --diff-filter=D |
git update-index --remove --stdin
;-)
Ah. This comes in handy. I already searched for a command to delete
all
missing files. After reading through the fine manual of 'git rm', I
went
to git update-index but didn't come up with a solution to my problem.
But I have to say, an argument to 'git rm' would be preferable than
the
above plumping.
Wouldn't:
git rm $(git ls-files --deleted)
do the trick, or am I missing something?
