[apologies for possible dupe -- my mailer freaked out]

Doing: cg-add foo bar fails if foo doesn't exist but doesn't check for bar. It also gives misleading reports to stdout.

I've fixed it at rsync://www.luto.us/cogito.git
Patch attached below as well.

-- Changed cg-add to check each added file for existence.
