Re: Request feature: –no-submodule

The reason we need to list all of the true files (except submodules) is 
for code refactoring using the sed unility, for example:

git ls-files | grep -Ev '(png$|ico$)' | xargs sed -i 's/\r\n/\n/'

All of the other alternatives we could think of are very ugly.

In all honesty, though this seems like a niche request for ls-files to
fulfill, ls-files already has quite the collection of options, so I
wouldn't be sad to see it learn how to do this, too.

I would be somewhat sad for two reasons.

In my opinion, this should be a feature for "ls-files" only, since it 
would be nice to have a clean stream of true files.
