[description]
Instead of removing an entry from the index and adding one with the same name, you can also directly update that entry!
Put the content you want in a file with a matching name, and then run
git update-index <file>
This will create a new blob, and update the hash of the entry to that blob.
Update an entry in the index!
[setup]
echo "file 1" > file1
echo "file 2" > file2
echo "file 3" > file3
git add .
[setup goal]
echo "file 1" > file1
echo "file 2" > file2
echo "file 3" > file3
git add .
echo "new content" > file1
git update-index file1
