Re: Doing a git add '' will add more files then expected

Steps to reproduce:
In bash (not sure this is bash specific) do:
git add ''
(that's to apostrophes, an empty argument)

Results
same as doing git add .

Expected
no files added or error about not finding file ''
The argument to git add is a pathspec, and the empty pathspec matches
all files.
