actually, a little experimentation suggests that this might be all i
need:
- physically add <new file>
$ git add <new file>
$ git diff HEAD > patchfile
- physically remove <new file>
$ git rm <new file>
Yep, or instead of git-rm, you can just do `git-reset --hard HEAD`.
It's essentially the same, since you did no commit'ing.
