This is probably what everyone sees:
When I run `git status'; I see modified and newfiles scrambled together
Is there a trick or technique to make that output show each category
separately?
Or do folks just a throw a `sort' in there (git status|sort) and lose
the color ouput?

If you set color.ui=auto it'll disable coloring when it detects that
the output isn't to a terminal, i.e. being piped.
It sounds like you want:
git -c color.ui=always status --short|sort
But there's no native option to sort the status output, but that'll do
it for you.

You can use `git status -s` and match on the modification type (M
corresponds to modified, A to new files). See the man page for more
details on the interface.
