Hi,

ls-files -t seems to always show status H, even if the file was modified
or deleted, and thus gets shown by -m and -d respectively.

That's not exactly "always", but I don't know whether it's the desired
behavior:

/tmp/git$ git st
# On branch master
# Changed but not updated:
#   (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
#       modified:   modified
#       deleted:    removed
#
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
/tmp/git$ git ls-files -t
H modified
H removed
H unmodified
/tmp/git$ git ls-files -t -m
C modified
C removed
/tmp/git$ git ls-files -t -d
R removed
$ git ls-files -t -d -m
C modified
R removed
C removed

So, you get the C and R flags only when you request explicitely -m and
-d.

Let's see how it goes without "-t":

pclouds@dektop /tmp/i $ git ls-files
modified
removed
unmodified
pclouds@dektop /tmp/i $ git ls-files -m
modified
removed
pclouds@dektop /tmp/i $ git ls-files -d
removed
pclouds@dektop /tmp/i $ git ls-files -d -m
modified
removed
removed

I'd say it's expected behavior.
