git add: add long equivalents of '-u' and '-f' options
The option -u stands for --update and it is a good idea to make it clear especially because this is the only mode of operation of "git add" that does something different from "adding". Give longer --force synonym to -f while we are at it as well. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
