Can "git state" be improved?

[kieranpotts]

Show a clear snapshot of the state of our files and of the repository:

• Working tree changes
  • Tracked
  • Untracked
• Staged files
• Last commit

The default output of git status is better for this purpose, but verbose:

$ git status
On branch master
Changes to be committed:
(use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
new file: chapter2.txt
Changes not staged for commit:
(use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
(use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
modified: chapter1.txt
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
chapter3.txt
