You should have got something like the following: # On branch master # Changes to be committed: # (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage) # # new file: bar # # Changed but not updated: # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) # # modified: bar # BTW. you have made initial commit, did you? -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git -- 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
