I agree with this sentence, this is a bug because:

git commit -a ( and -a means all ) is incoherent with "git commit ."
This is stupid because when I want commit part of the tree, commit
includes one file that is not included when I say to commit all . 
So maybe you should fix, git commit -a to be coherent .
