Add should not run a new Git process for each file

What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Select a whole directory with many files to add
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
git-add accepts a list of files to add. That should be done, calling the git process a single time. Instead, a new git process is started for each file. This takes forever and causes incredible system load.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
TortoiseGit 1.6.5.0 (1.7.2.0 does not work at all) on Windows XP.
