Oh yes, @searsaw, that's right. I don't know that git add . in the current version of git automatically removes manually deleted files, but it will add all new files as well as all changed files.

@pirj & @bentruyman: do you have to install a git plugin for ZSH or does it just know git commands and aliases out of the box?

One of the disadvantages, as I see it, is that it's not longer a single 2- or 3-character command; you must always prefix it with git or g and a space, right? (Plus, I rarely use tab-completion for branch names, although that is most likely because it has never worked for me and my aliases :-P)

@hauleth, huh, I guess I never really thought about using git aliases (never really read about them when I was learning git). I'll have to look into using those.
