Comment 2 for bug 448310

I suspect the majority of command-line users don't want this hand holding by default. If you want, you can alias commit to commit --strict.

OTOH, our GUI (Explorer) does this by showing the Unversioned files very clearly. If there are any, it suggests adding, deleting or ignoring them. Only when that's done, does it suggest committing files as the sensible next step.
