Hi! I was trying to remove a number of files from a git repo I had. Iread http://kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/v1.4.4.4/git-rm.htmlwhich I interpreted to mean that git-rm removed only from the index,and not from the working tree. In retrospect, the short descriptionis clear: "git-rm - Remove files from the working tree and from theindex," but I was confused by the language:"<file>… Files to remove from the index and optionally, from the workingtree as well.-f Remove files from the working tree as well as from the index." Because of "optionally" and the very existence of the "-f" optionsuggests that you have to do something extra to ask git-rm to messwith the working tree. The manpage is much clearer, and while I recovered the files Iaccidentally removed simply with git checkout, I suggest that thewebpage be made a bit clearer. In particular, adding info about howto _only_ remove files from the index would be helpful. I'd be happy to make the changes to the webpage; I don't know how todo that or if it's appropriate. Thanks! -a.��.n��������+%������w��{.n��������n�r������&��z�ޗ�zf���h���~����������_��+v���)ߣ�m
