As a minor sidenote you can equivalently write that as:

    chomp(my @files = `git ls-files`);

I.e. chomp itself when given a list will chomp each item of the list.
So no need for a map.

Right, thanks, that is more readable. I use the map form reflexively
because I am often doing stuff like:

  my @list = do {
    open(my $fh, '<', $fn);
    map { chomp; $_ }
  };

(or replacing "do" with an actual function which is returning a
grotesque pipeline of grep/map, etc).
