The documentation for git-rm at\nhttp://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rm.html says\n\nEXAMPLES\n\ngit-rm Documentation/\\*.txt\n\n    Removes all *.txt files from the index that are under the\nDocumentation directory and any of its subdirectories. The files are not\nremoved from the working tree.\n\n\nI think that this should say\n\n\ngit-rm --cached Documentation/\\*.txt\n\n?\n\nOtherwise I don't see why it wouldn't remove the files from the working\ntree.  If this is a documentation error, it could cause some bad\nproblems for people who follow it.\n"}]}
