However, Dave's suggestion of altering git-status output to be
relative to (but not limited by) CWD has merit.  Too bad I don't have
time to work on it right now.

I am happy to hack on this if there's not widespread revolt against the concept.

I'd definitely like that feature, but I wonder how many people will run
"git commit -a" in a subdir after seeing only what they want to see in the
output, and then accidentally committing junk somewhere else in the repo.

I never suggested path *limited*, only path *relative*. git-status
would still show all the same files, but their paths would be relative
to your current directory, so there'd be no confusion like you
mentioned. This is how Johannes' patch works.

Ah, that'd be a different matter entirely then. Thanks for clarifying. I
have no further objections then.
