# To make the command more performant, we can skip the recursive deletion of files one by one, and instead directly update the index with the current state of the working directory.
# This can be achieved using the following single command:
git rm -r --cached . -q --ignore-unmatch
# The '-q' flag is used to operate quietly (silencing unnecessary output).
# The '--ignore-unmatch' flag prevents an error in case there are no files to remove.| Associated Context | |
