Hi all,

We are students from Universidade do Minho in Portugal, and we are using git
in project as a case study.
While experimenting with git we found an unexpected behavior with git rm.
Here is a trace of the unexpected behavior:

$ git init
$ mkdir D
$ echo "Hi" > D/F
$ git add D/F
$ rm -r D
$ echo "Hey" > D
$ git rm D/F
warning: 'D/F': Not a directory
rm 'D/F'
fatal: git rm: 'D/F': Not a directory


If the file D created with last echo did not exist or was named differently
then no error would occur as expected. For example:

$ git init
$ mkdir D
$ echo "Hi" > D/F
$ git add D/F
$ rm -r D
$ echo "Hey" > F
$ git rm D/F

This works as expected, and the only difference is the name of the file of
the last echo.
Is this the expected behavior of git rm?
