Staged — Ready for commit area , it pass files to Unmodified area

Commands:
git init #initialize pwd in git

git status #show status of files (brief status)
git status -s #show summarized very short status (veryshort) [use for massive changes with file]

git add index.html #pass file to staging area , ready for commit
git add -A #Pass all files in pwd at once to Staging area

git commit #Commit the changes
git commit -a -m ‘messege’ # To commit all files at once

#When commiting , it open config file to edit about changes: (Uncomment #Initial commit)
#For editing commit , alternative: git commit -m ‘Messege’

git checkout <file> #check current with last commited (for single file)
git checkout -f #Update current file with last commit (for all files in pwd)

git log # tell info about git
git log -p -1 #tell history of (-1 repr no. of) edit and commits

git diff # see what is modified in files
git diff — staged #see diff between modified staged file to last commit

git rm filename #delete file from staging and current folder
git rm — cached filename #remove file from staging area but not curdir
(Can be used to place file untracked area from staged area)
