We recently talked about this on the mailing list and decided that
git-add shouldn't remove files that have disappeared, as doing so
might break most user's expections of what git-add does.
...
"git commit -a" will remove disappeared files.  It has for quite
some time.

It obviously is not the time to do this as I have already said
that I won't look at anything but fixes and documentation
updates until 1.5.3, but I am not opposed to have "git add -a $paths"
which would do something like "git add $paths && git add -u $paths".

I'm all for it.
