Beautiful.

I'd expect you kill add.treewideupdate too. Say one year after this
patch, we can start to annoy users asking them to remove
add.treewideupdate and switch to new behavior. Another year goes by,
we refuse to work with those who still keep add.treewideupdate config.

A consistent default behavior is a good thing. If I help a git user
and later realize "git add -u" on their machine does not work as I
expect it to be, it'd be less pleasant.
