check-ignore currently shows how .gitignore rules would treat untracked
paths. Tracked paths do not generate useful output. This prevents
debugging of why a path became tracked unexpectedly unless that path is
first removed from the index with `git rm --cached <path>`.
The option --no-index tells the command to bypass the check for the
path being in the index and hence allows tracked paths to be checked
too.
Whilst this behaviour deviates from the characteristics of `git add` and
`git status` its use case is unlikely to cause any user confusion.
Test scripts are augmented to check this option against the standard
ignores to ensure correct behaviour.

check-attr and check-ignore have the potential to deadlock callers
which do not read back the output in real-time. For example, if a
caller writes N paths out and then reads N lines back in, it risks
becoming blocked on write() to check-*, and check-* is blocked on
write back to the caller. Somebody has to buffer; the pipe buffers
provide some leeway, but they are limited.
Thanks to Peff for pointing this out:

If `-n` or `--non-matching` are specified, non-matching pathnames will
also be output, in which case all fields in each output record except
for <pathname> will be empty. This can be useful when running
check-ignore as a background process, so that files can be
incrementally streamed to STDIN, and for each of these files, STDOUT
will indicate whether that file matched a pattern or not. (Without
this option, it would be impossible to tell whether the absence of
output for a given file meant that it didn't match any pattern, or
that the result simply hadn't been flushed to STDOUT yet.)

This works in a similar manner to git-check-attr.
Thanks to Jeff King and Junio C Hamano for the idea:
