Hello,

I'm am trying to patch git to refuse to commit if there are both staged and
unstaged changes, and I pass the -a flag. I expected this simple addition
to parse_and_validate_options() in commit.c to accomplish most of what I
want:

if (all && s->workdir_dirty)
    die(_("Cannot commit with -a if there are staged and unstaged changes"));

But when compiled, this will commit anyway even with staged and unstaged
files. I think I misunderstanding the workdir_dirty flag. Can someone help
me?
