Hi Lars,

I'm almost totally unexperienced with git, but what is missing, I think, is 
to "stage" the changed files with, IIRC, "git add somefiles.." That's a git 
concept. I read the first three chapters of an excellent and easy to read 
introduction into git where I learned that, which you can get for free at this 
website:
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2

Just in case you are interested.

Kind regards,
Stefan
