Then the --ignore-removals option could be added using a patch like
the following.
adding ignore-removals as a synonym (and keeping it) would be a good
idea.
We would still need to carry --all and --no-all that have been with
us ever since we added -A option, though.
The final step to turn -A the default will be held back until Git 2.0 release,
but I've inserted the following patch before that step.
I am thinking that it would be a good idea to merge up to this step
to 'master' tomorrow, and have you guys tweak it further on 'master'
with a patch like the one I am responding to, before the 1.8.3
final. We will have to tweak the 2.0 endgame version as we go but
that is outside 'next' for now, so it should be manageable.

Subject: [PATCH] git add: rephrase the removal will cease to be ignored
warning
Now the logic to decide when to warn has been tightened, we know the
user is in a situation where the current and future behaviours will
be different. Spell out what happens with these two versions and
how to explicitly ask for the behaviour, and suggest git status as
a way to inspect the current status.
