I'm still a bit confused as we don't count > it as a deletion when using --cached or applying to the worktree. Nothing that complicated - --index requires that the index and worktree be identical, and nothing that can possibly be in a worktree is identical to an i-t-a entry. > > --check goes through all the same code, > > The same code as --cached or --index? (I assume it's the former but > wanted to be sure) "--cached --check" goes through the same code paths as "--cached", "--cached --index" goes through the same code paths as "--index", "--check" goes through the same code paths as [no options]. The option just makes it skip the part where it writes things out.
