[PATCH 3/3] Don't always require working tree for git-rm

From: Mike Hommey <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:43:46
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

This allows to do git rm --cached -r directory, instead of
git ls-files -z directory | git update-index --remove -z --stdin.
This can be particularly useful for git-filter-branch users.
