I think you'd allow indenting files which were either tracked *or*
specified on the command line.

Also, it makes a more sense to "add" the file before indenting it, to
allow checking the output and remove unrelated changes.  So that doesn't
seem to me like a restriction of any significance.

But I would never want to indent an untracked file unless I specified
it.
