From: ZheNing Hu <adlternative@gmail.com>
1.When we use git ls-files with both -m -d,
we would find that repeated path,sometimes
it is confusing.
2.When we are performing a branch merge,
 the default git ls-files will also output
 multiple repeated file names.
Therefore, I added the --dedup option to git ls-files.
1. It can be achieved that only the deleted file name
is displayed when using -m, -d, and --dedup at the same time.
2. Add --dedup when merging branches to remove duplicate file
 names. (unless -s, -u are used)

    builtin/ls-files.c:add git ls-file --dedup option
    
    I am reading the source code of git ls-files and learned that git ls
    -files may have duplicate entries when conflict occurs in a branch merge
    or when different options are used at the same time. Users may fell
    confuse when they see these duplicate entries.
    
    As Junio C Hamano said ,it have odd behaviour.
    
    Therefore, we can provide an additional option to git ls-files to delete
    those repeated information.
    
    This fixes https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/198
    
    Thanks!
