People sometimes find that "git add -u && git add ." are 13 keystrokes too
many.
The support of this has been very low priority for me personally, because
I almost never do "git add ." in an already populated directory, and if a
directory is not already populated, there is no point saying "git add -u"
at the same time.
However, for two types of people that are very different from me, this
mode of operation may make sense and there is no reason to leave it
unsupported. That is:
(1) If you are extremely well disciplined and keep perfect .gitignore, it
always is safe to say "git add ."; or
(2) If you are extremely undisciplined and do not even know what files
you created, and you do not very much care, it does not matter if
"git add ." included everything.
So here it is, although I suspect I will not use it myself, ever.
