So here is the "reworked" one on top of what is in 'next'.
It introduces a bit of conflict with the "add -u/-A" topic, so I am
not ready to push out the integration result yet.

Subject: [PATCH] git add: rework the logic to warn "git add <pathspec>..."
default change
The earlier logic to warn against "git add subdir" that is run
without "-A" or "--no-all" was only to check any <pathspec> given
exactly spells a directory name that (still) exists on the
filesystem. This had number of problems:
* "git add '*dir'" (note that the wildcard is hidden from the
shell) would not trigger the warning.
* "git add '*.py'" would behave differently between the current
version of Git and Git 2.0 for the same reason as "subdir", but
would not trigger the warning.
* "git add dir" for a submodule "dir" would just update the index
entry for the submodule "dir" without ever recursing into it, and
use of "-A" or "--no-all" would matter. But the logic only
checks the directory-ness of "dir" and gives an unnecessary
warning.
Rework the logic to detect the case where the behaviour will be
different in Git 2.0, and issue a warning only when it matters.
Even with the code before this warning, "git add subdir" will have
to traverse the directory in order to find _new_ files the index
does not know about _anyway_, so we can do this check without adding
an extra pass to find if <pathspec> matches any removed file.
This essentially updates the "add_files_to_cache()" public API to
"update_files_in_cache()" API that is internal to "git add", because
with the "--all" option, the function is no longer about "adding"
paths to the cache, but is also used to remove them.
There are other callers of the former from "checkout" (used when
"checkout -m" prepares the temporary tree that represents the local
modifications to be merged) and "commit" ("commit --include" that
picks up local changes in addition to what is in the index). Since
ADD_CACHE_IGNORE_ERRORS (aka "--no-all") is not used by either of
them, once dust settles after Git 2.0 and the warning becomes
unnecessary, we may want to unify these two functions again.
