But by installing the latest version of GIT and going thru the tutorial, I am unable to understand why there is a mismatch in the commmands. Tutorial says use commands like git init-db but actually these are installed as git-init-db. Is this OK.. or NOT. One more doubt is .. I was unable to locate a command like git-add .. Can some one help me. Regards Srinivas.Kandagatla Celuinte Soft Systems. ``` ## Jakub Narebski, 2006-05-29 06:07 Subject: Re: Commands Mismatch in tutorial and the actual binaries.

Actually, in properly installed git both versions should work, and 'git command' is preferred version, at least for the ordinary user level commands; "plumbing" commands are usually spelled 'git-command'. Usually 'git command' is just a wrapper calling git-command. -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ```
