+ * This example demonstrates the libgit2 index APIs to roughly
+ * simulate the output of `git ls-files`.
+ * `git ls-files` has many options and this currently does not show them.
+ *
+ * `git ls-files` base command shows all paths in the index at that time.
+ * This includes staged and committed files, but unstaged files will not display.
+ *
+ * This currently supports the default behavior and the `--error-unmatch` option.
