How to untrack all deleted files in Git

What's the command to untrack all deleted files in Git?

I know there's a command to untrack a file by name (git rm myfile)

But I'd like to untrack all the deleted files, without caring about how they're named.

In the newer versions of git, those files are automatically untracked with git add --update.
