This is a regression in git 2.11.0 (version 2.10.2 is fine).

In git-gui I select multiple files in the Unstaged Changes (using
shift+click) and press ctrl+t to stage them. Then only one files gets
staged instead of all of the selected files.
The same happens when unstaging files.

Git-cola also exhibits the same behavior. Although there I could stage
multiple files if I used a popup menu instead of the keyboard shortcut
(I'm guessing it goes through a different code path?).

Can you elaborate a bit?

I just tested git-cola with Git 2.11 and it worked fine for me.
I selected several files and used the Ctrl+s hotkey to stage the
selected files.  They all got staged.

If you have a test repo, or reproduction recipe, I'd be curious
to try it out.

Can you try with git gui?
Though I guess it's probably specific to my distro or configuration.
I'm running 64bit gentoo with:
linux 4.8.12
gcc 5.4.0
glibc 2.23-r3
tk 8.6.6
gettext 0.19.8.1
openssl 1.0.2j
Not sure if that's helpful though.
