I meant "new file" here.  Of course I can process the output of "git
status", but I was looking for a cleaner method, if there is one.
"Process" as in "Read in a script and have it act on the information"?

git diff-index --name-status HEAD

would be one Kosher way for the scripts, and if your scripting language
can handle NUL terminated string, giving -z option would make your script
more robust against funny pathnames.

git diff-index --name-only --diff-filter=A HEAD

if you only care about "new file" and nothing else.

Yes.  Junio, your answer was perfect.  Thanks.
