There are very frequent scenarios when is desirable to limit the
status command just to a directory or a set of files in the repo.
I would have expected that "git status ." to show me only the status
for the files under the current directory under any circumstances,
not the whole repo with filenames relative to the current directory.
What is the purpose of such behaviour?
Hi Eddy, IIRC there has been some discussion about this in the git
mailing list recently, within the last months. I currently am not sure
about the outcome.
I tried seaching for this, but I couldn't find it. Any help is
appreciated (even a forwarding of the BR).
Does this help?:

Hi Eddy, there's been another thread about the 'git status' behavior,
see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/79366
Does that clear it up?, I'd like to close this report.
Yes, it clear it up, but still, as Sverre Rabbelier points out, unknown items are NOT visible in the
git diff command, whereas in the git status command, they are. So from my PoV, this request is still
untackled, since untracked objects are not visible at all in the proposed alternative.
