Once you get that down then seeking the same > methods through the command line isn't too difficult, I spent a good chunk of time getting familiar with the index before there was a git-gui, and I can only agree: git-gui makes it obvious how simple the concept of an index really is, in a way the command-line tools never did. With the command line, you have to visualize it yourself, which means you have to understand it first; but with git-gui, it's just drawn on your screen, plain and simple. -- Karl Hasselström, kha@xxxxxxxxxxx www.treskal.com/kalle - 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
