I also think it would make > sense to rename "update-index" entirely, or at least offer other names for How about this: git-update-index becomes plumbing only - never expect a user to run it. Hence, git-add becomes git-prepare and does a) update-index --add when the file being "prepared" is not tracked b) update-index when the file is already tracked git-rm takes on "git-update-index --remove" (and --force-remove) with appropriate switches. git-mv does what it does - it's already pretty perfect git-cp gets added; even though it's simply "cp a b; git-prepare b" Obviously with all the details that I've left out filled in.
