Hi, i'm learning about git and soon have a question. My repo is in /dev/sda6 and my home is in /dev/sda4, as are both in local i thought that when i committ, i'll found the files on repo changed, it was not so! I learn i have to use git pull, but i didn't understand why. I made some tries, put my repo in /home/user/myrepo cloned in /home/user/myclones changed files and committed and the changes was in the repo without any need of pulling, and i have permission to write to /dev/sda6, so why have i to pull changes?

Thanks.
Matteo
