That being said, you noticed that the regular add case notes unused
pathspecs on the command line:

  $ git add bogus
  fatal: pathspec 'bogus' did not match any files

We could probably do the same here.

It won't be entirely trivial to do so efficiently but it shouldn't be a

Something like this (untested of course)?

Looks like Chris gave it some basic testing. I read over the patch
itself, and it looks sane to me.
