I've had a read through and I don't have any specific comments, I like
the way you have simplified adding the standard excludes for callers and
making the existing value of reset invalid when converting to an enum. I
think there is a small risk someone will complain about read-tree
changing how it handles ignored files, but hopefully everyone was just
passing ".gitignore" to --exclude-per-directory and they wont mind
'read-tree -m -u' removing ignored files now.
Best Wishes
Phillip
