This has become that anti-pattern "when in a hole keep digging"...

I wanted to ensure that the user's manual actions were better identified, and include part of Johannes suggestions ($gmane/261308/focus=261348). However, on checking my expectation (of using 'git add'), it created a 'learning experience', so hopefully the update is better for it.

The updated patch V2 should follow. Comments welcome. -- Philip
