Not sure if this fits your use case but I often have such list of 
filenames to be found in a vertical list. What I do in that case is to 
copy them using the rectangular copy function, and then:
$ xargs git add [ENTER]
[paste clipboard content here]
[CTRL-D]
You may experiment with "xargs echo" instead to see the result.
