Hi!

There is a problem with committing new files with the current cogito 
version.

I got an error like this: 
  fatal: Unable to add arch/ppc/kernel/dcr.S to database

I think this is caused by the incorrect file list parsing in 
cg-commit precommit_update(): it expects new files prefixed with "A", 
while they are prefixed with "N".

The following trivial patch fixes this.
