From: Jon Forrest Date: Tue, 27 May 2025 16:03:55 GMT Subject: "git commit -a" Doesn't Add New Files. Why? Message-ID: <1014npb$rbl$1@ciao.gmane.io> The documentation clearly says that running "git commit -a" doesn't add new files to the index. I wonder why that choice was made. Would the addition of "git commit -A" (note the capital letter) that works the same as "git commit -a", except that new files are also added be something you'd consider? Cordially, Jon Forrest
