From a65a686f4967ecba0759289d0e918f652980e8a2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Subject: [PATCH] make checkout-index '-a' flag saner.

The original semantics of pretending as if all files were
specified where '-a' appeared and using only the flags given so
far was too confusing.
