Output format from "git add -n $path" lists path to blobs that are going to be added on a single line, separated with SP. On the other hand, the suggested "git add -u -n" shows one path per line, like "add '<file>'\n". Of course, these two are inconsistent. Plain "git add -n" can afford to only say names of paths, as all it does is to add (update). However, "git add -u" needs to be able to express "remove" somehow. So if we need to have them formatted the same way, we need to unify with the "git add -n -u" format. Incidentally, this is consistent with how 'update-index' says it. This changes the output from "git add -n $paths" but as a general principle, output from Porcelain commands is a fair game for improvements and not for script consumption.
