If I understand it correctly, then the main usage difference between you (core git users) and Wolfgang (and me by the way) cogito users, is the handling of new files. With git-update-index all new files are added to the index automatically (without parameters), right? Using cg-add you have to either name the files explicitly you want to add, or use the "-a" option.
Actually, no. I probably didn't explain well.
Cogito and core git handle new files in exactly the same way: they must be added explicitly (with cg-add, git-update-index --add, or git-add).
Just for the record:
git-add without parameters will automatically add all non-ignored files to the index. That seems to be the workflow at least Andy is using.
