Commiting left out files

At the end of chapter (Front End) we are told to git commit -m +""

I have the following:

I says to use git add. Do I do those 1 by 1 for those not committed?

Thanks Chris

For this I would do the following

  1. git add all the files that are untracked git add ../images/glyphicons-halflings-white.png

  2. remove the files that have been deleted git rm ../../views/statuses/index.json.jbuilder

  3. add a to your commit -m (that adds all the modified files) git commit -am "Whatever commit message you would like to use would go here"

  4. Check to see if you have anything that has not been commited git status

  5. Push it up to github git push
