  When using --error-unmatch to expand the user supplied
  &lt;file&gt; (i.e. path pattern) arguments to paths, pretend
  that paths which were removed in the index since the
  named &lt;tree-ish&gt; are still present. Using this option
  with <code>-s</code> or <code>-u</code> options does not make any sense.

  <a href="git-status.html">git-status(1)</a> <code>--porcelain</code> and
  <a href="git-diff-files.html">git-diff-files(1)</a> <code>--name-status</code> are almost always
  superior alternatives, and users should look at
  <a href="git-status.html">git-status(1)</a> <code>--short</code> or <a href="git-diff.html">git-diff(1)</a>
  <code>--name-status</code> for more user-friendly alternatives.
