Subject: [PATCH] Make git-update-cache --force-remove regular
X-Git-Tag: v0.99~351
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9b63f50148bd155c00b6893dbbf48583f7b0848d;p=git.git

[PATCH] Make git-update-cache --force-remove regular

Make the --force-remove flag behave same as --add, --remove and
--replace. This means I can do

	git-update-cache --force-remove -- file1.c file2.c

which is probably saner and also makes it easier to use in cg-rm.
