    You ran 'git add' with neither '-A (--all)' or '--no-all', whose
    behaviour will change in Git 2.0 with respect to paths you
    removed from your working tree.

    * 'git add --no-all <pathspec>', which is the current default,
      ignores paths you removed from your working tree.

    * 'git add --all <pathspec>' will let you also record the
      removals.

    The removed paths (e.g. '%s') are ignored with this version of Git.
    Run 'git status' to remind yourself what paths you have removed
    from your working tree.

or something?

That looks good. :)

I think the direction may be good but the above is too tall to be
the final version. of the message.  Somebody good at phrasing needs
to trim it down without losing the essense.
