Git commit -a “untracked files”?

Question

When I do a git commit -a, I am seeing the following:

  # Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
  # with \'#\' will          


        

Answer 1

You should type into the command line

git add --all

This will commit all untracked files

Edit:

After staging your files they are ready for commit so your next command should be

git commit -am "Your commit message"
