How about Contrary to other SCM's, with GIT you have to explicitly "add" the content that you want to commit before it is made; it is not an offence to leave changes outside the index if you want to leave them to a later commit. However if you do want all changes from your working tree to be added to the commit before it is made use the "-a" flag with the commit command and the content will be added just before the commit is made. -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
