As we have initialize here our first project we are now ready to make our first commit.
Check the status
- naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git status
naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git status
Git will show the message
- On branch master
-
- Initial commit
-
- nothing to commit (create/copy files and use "git add" to track)
On branch master
Initial commit
nothing to commit (create/copy files and use "git add" to track)
So,Now I goona create a new file and save it in project directory, I have used gedit to create a file, you can use any text editor of your choice.
I have created a txt file name it `my_first_file` and saved it under `/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp/` now my file locaiton is `/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp/my_first_file`
On Terminal:
Now tell Git to add all changes that have been mabde to this entire project
- naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git add .
naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git add .
dot indicate this directory
- naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git status
naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git status
Now Git will display this message
- On branch master
-
- Initial commit
-
- Changes to be committed:
- (use "git rm --cached ..." to unstage)
-
- new file: my_first_file
-
On branch master
Initial commit
Changes to be committed:
(use "git rm --cached ..." to unstage)
new file: my_first_file
Git now found that the file has been added but still this file is not commited
Now I am going to commit it tell Git to put it in permanent memory, to put it in the repository. with a message -m so that I can know in future what changes I have made at this point.
it is always a good idea to put something more specific in message.
- naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git commit -m "my initial commit"
naveen@naveen:/var/www/html/RND/symfony_sites/symfony_todoapp$ git commit -m "my initial commit"
Now Git will show you a message
- [master (root-commit) a67edfa] my initial commit
- Committer: Naveen
- Your name and email address were configured automatically based
- on your username and hostname. Please check that they are accurate.
- You can suppress this message by setting them explicitly:
-
- git config --global user.name "Your Name"
- git config --global user.email you@example.com
-
- After doing this, you may fix the identity used for this commit with:
-
- git commit --amend --reset-author
-
- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
- create mode 100644 my_first_file
-

create mode 100644 my_first_file
we will be learning more on how to confgure global user.name and global user.email and many other global setting of config file later
Below is the basic flow of git
