Subject: [PATCH] Convert update-index references in docs to add.

From: "Shawn O. Pearce" <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 17 Feb 2007 04:43:42 -0500

Since `git add` is the approved porcelain for an end-user to invoke
when they want to manipulate the index, porcelain documentation
should steer the user to this command rather than the pure plumbing
update-index.

 Maybe this isn't the best change to make.  I dunno.  I think it is
 cleaner to keep the user looking at add instead of update-index,
 but what do I know.  :-)
