It looks like this may have introduced a bug when staging a file
removal.  Here's an example git session showing the issue:

Thanks for a report, but I cannot get the evidence that the said patch has
anything to do with the issue you illustrated.

Right, I incorrectly assumed the problem was with git-apply when I saw
Steve's patch since the symptoms seemed similar.

I just finished a bisect, though, and the problem is in removing a
non-empty file with "git add -p".  This wasn't caught by existing tests
because they only try to remove an empty file.

This was introduced in
