Git add and commit in one command

Question

Is there any way I can do

git add -A
git commit -m \"commit message\"

in one command?

I seem to be doing those two commands a lot,

Answer 1

git commit -am "message"

is an easy way to tell git to delete files you have deleted, but I generally don't recommend such catch-all workflows. Git commits should in best practice be fairly atomic and only affect a few files.

git add .
git commit -m "message"

is an easy way to add all files new or modified. Also, the catch-all qualification applies. The above commands will not delete files deleted without the git rm command.

git add app
git commit -m "message"

is an easy way to add all files to the index from a single dir, in this case the app dir.
