Right. That's why I suggested either to have a buffer-local var to store
the "to be deleted" status, or do that in the staging area first.

'git rm --cached', used in the patch for this issue originally, is
indeed such command. Unless I misunderstood the question.
$ git rm --cached CONTRIBUTE
rm 'CONTRIBUTE'
$ git status --porcelain --untracked-files
D CONTRIBUTE
?? CONTRIBUTE
