Wolfgang, I know you're not fond of .gitignore files because you use
git-status to get a list of all non-committed files.  However, for
many of us having a nice set of .gitignore files is pretty much a
necessity.  I personally have a .gitignore patch that I need to apply
everytime I fetch the latest mainline.

If an alternative command can be used to do the same thing, would you
consider accepting this patch?  Have you tried: 'git-ls-files
--others'?

Thanks,
g.
