Ciaran McCreeshgit rm --if-missing will only remove files if they've already been removed from disk.

There's nothing here that can't be done using git update-index, but git rm is less scary.
Regarding exit status: I'm not sure whether exit status should be based upon whether any files were actually removed, or whether it should be based upon whether or not all of the supplied patterns were matched. I've gone for the latter, so that 'git rm --if-missing -r .' succeeds if there's nothing to remove.
I'm not sure whether 'missing' is the best word. '--if-noent' might be more appropriate, but less familiar to some. Or is this worth a short option?
