I really wish it were the case, but I doubt it.

People from other VCS background seem to still think that "commit" without
paths should commit everything; after getting told that "what you add to
the index is what you will commit", I can easily see this commint: but but
but I told Git that I _want_ to add with -N! Why aren't you committing it?

I see "-N" just as an indication, not really an "add" operation.

But the thing is, what _you_, who knows a bit more than these new people
about Git, see does not matter, because they would not listen to you.
