In short, "git ls-files -t" was written long ago, never tested, and
probably mostly used by no one. It has a very strange behavior, it's
not just the doc. I'd advise against using it.

"git status --porcelain" is probably what you want:

       --porcelain
           Give the output in a stable, easy-to-parse format for
           scripts. Currently this is identical to --short output, but
           is guaranteed not to change in the future, making it safe
           for scripts.
