It's also painful for me. IMHO, the behaviour of "git-status" should
keep consistent with "git-diff" and "git-log" which allow for the
path.
Another point, It will be helpful to add a config item to change the
default behaviour for 'git-diff" and "git-log". For example,
'diff.defaultcurrentpath=true' to let git only show difference in
current directory instead of difference in top directory when typing
'git-diff'
