But I got some messages from Git, which made me confused to think, about the *philosophy of those*. arup@linux-wzza:~> mkdir Git_tutorial arup@linux-wzza:~> cd Git_tutorial/ arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> LS If 'LS' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf LS arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> ls arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> echo "welcome to git" > test.txt arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> ls test.txt arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git init Initialized empty Git repository in /home/arup/Git_tutorial/.git/ arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git status # On branch master # # Initial commit # # Untracked files: # (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed) # # test.txt nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track) arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git add test.txt arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git status # On branch master # # Initial commit # # Changes to be committed: # (use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage) # # new file: test.txt # NOTE :- While, I have a new file in my repository, and I staged it, it is telling me to unstage it using *git rm -- cached <file>*. But once I committed, and the file became a tracked file in my repository, *Git* internal message got changed, *for unstaging*, Which is why, I asked this question. Look below - arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git commit -m "commit1" [master (root-commit) 20bf27f] commit1 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) create mode 100644 test.txt arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> echo "How are you enjoying?" > test.txt arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git status # On branch master # Changes not staged for commit: # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) # (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) # # modified: test.txt # no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git add test.txt arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> git status # On branch master # Changes to be committed: # (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage) # # modified: test.txt # arup@linux-wzza:~/Git_tutorial> It is now telling to USE "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage, NOT "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage.
