If you have local modifications, "git commit" and "git commit ." would do different things, so corresponding "git status" should give you different output. By giving "." to git status, the latter form is asking what reminder message you would see in the commit log message buffer if you say "git commit ." - 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
