How to commit with GIT?

To commit changes to a Git repository, you can follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you are in the root directory of your Git repository. You can navigate to the root directory using the command line.
  2. Use the git status command to see the changes you’ve made to your files. This will give you a list of the files that have been modified, added or deleted.
  3. Use the git add command to stage the changes you want to commit. You can add individual files using git add <file> or you can add all modified files using git add .
  4. Once you’ve staged the changes, use the git commit command to commit the changes to your local repository. You can add a commit message with the -m flag, like this: git commit -m "Commit message here".
  5. After committing the changes, you can push the changes to a remote repository, like GitHub or GitLab, using the git push command.

Here’s an example of the commands you could use to commit changes to a Git repository:

git status
git add .
git commit -m "Update README.md"
git push origin main

This example assumes that you’re working on the main branch and that your remote repository is named origin.
