"git add -u" is one of the only exceptions (with "git grep"). I consider
this as a bug, and think this should be changed. This has been discussed
several times here, but no one took the time to actually do the change

Did we ever agree that it is a good change to begin with?  Pointers?

I don't think a consensus was reached, but it has been discussed at
least once in this thread:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/166223/focus=168238

Essentially, the discussion boiled down to "it would be cool to change,
but the migration won't be easy".

The main argument for change is (for me) consistency. Having
"git add -p" tree-wide and "git add -u" limited to . is really strange.
