  updating my git courseware and, since some man pages refer to files
"known to git", i just want to make sure i understand precisely which
files those are. AIUI, they would include:

  * tracked files
  * ignored files
  * new files which have been staged but not yet committed

is that it? are there others?
Doesn't the first category of yours include the third?  I always
read 'tracked' as 'in the index'.
 you're right, i was being redundant.
