So you would get a veto from me, too. Ditto. I use `git commit` more often than `git commit -a`. Actually scratch that, I use `git gui` more often than I use `git commit -a` but the point holds. I stage things long before I ever think about what the commit message should say. Its very rare that I am committing without staging something first, usually its a one liner fix for something and the -a just is the shorter way to stage the change. Early on in my Git days I didn't grasp how *useful* it is to stage first. Now I can't work without it. At least for any change more than 1 line. :) -- Shawn. - 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
