I agree that there have been huge improvements---particularly in documentation. So thanks to everybody! Here's a simpler idea that might add the unification you're looking for. How about a new option: git add -a|--all This would allow "git commit -a|--all" to be understood as a simple helper for: git add -a|--all git commit That kind of unification seems like it could be helpful while learning things. And I believe I've even wanted to do the "git add -a" operation before, so I think it might be useful in its own right at times, (though I can't think of a good example of why at the moment, so perhaps its not that important). -Carl
