You are completely right and I feel quite foolish.

What about this one:

toms-mac-mini:git-umlauts tom$ git status # On branch master # # Initial commit # # Changes to be committed: # (use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage) # # new file: "U\314\210berla\314\210nge.txt" # toms-mac-mini:git-umlauts tom$ git rm --cached "U\314\210berla\314\210nge.txt" fatal: pathspec 'U\314\210berla\314\210nge.txt' did not match any files
