When I have no staged changes, and I try to commit, I get the following dialog box:
If I choose Always, will unstaged changes be auto-committed in the future only if there are no staged changes? Or even if there are some staged changes?
The “changes not staged for commit” message shows when you run the “git status” command and have a file that has been changed but has not yet been added to the staging area. This is not an error message, rather a notification that you have changed files that are not in the staging area or a commit.
The Source Control icon in the Activity Bar on the left will always indicate an overview of how many changes you currently have in your repository. Selecting the icon will show you the details of your current repository changes: CHANGES, STAGED CHANGES and MERGE CHANGES.
When you stage a change, Visual Studio creates a Staged Changes section. Only changes in the Staged Changes section are added to the next commit, which you can do by selecting Commit Staged. The equivalent command for this action is git commit -m "Your commit message" .
The "Staging Area" In Git, just because a file was modified doesn't mean it will be automatically included in the next commit. Instead, you have to tell Git explicitly which of your modifications shall be part of the next commit. This is done by adding a change to the Staging Area or, put simply, by "staging" it.
in the list of CHANGES list, click the plus icon button on right side to make item to be staged.
