Please help!!!

I have tried to do this part of the project and somehow saved the part after "nano README" more than once and and I am not getting the same response that the video shows after you do "git add README", "git commit" and "Adding a README file". When I pressed "enter", it stayed on the same page that had all the information you got when you typed "git commit". At the bottom of the page, it shows this:

# Untracked files:
#   (use"git add <file>..." to include what will be committed)
#
#              README.save
#              README.save.1
#              file1
#              file2
#              file3

Is there any way to reset the console on Workspaces so I can start over? Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

I accidentally closed the command line out so now it is saved yet another time.

Hi Susan!

What do you see if you run "ls -l" command in the terminal?
