there's git-check-files in the repository, but AFAIK nobody uses it, not

Yes.

It was used by the old "git-applymbox" (aka "dotest") until I got around 
writing "git-apply".

It has no point any more, all the tools check the file status on their 
own, and yes, the thing should probably be removed.
