It is possible to delete a committed file from the index and then add it as intent-to-add. After `git reset HEAD`, the file should be identical in the index and HEAD. This patch provides the desired behavior even when the file is empty in the index.
Signed-off-by: Varun Naik <[email protected]> --- CC Duy because you seem to be the one who is most involved in changes to ita behavior. The test description was incorrect, so I changed that now.
