Yes, that is because of the git mess. I think that I am not too stupid but git is nothing for me. Now after years it is still a mystery why e.g. often some files are not committed despite I selected them to be committed. Also often an older version from my tree is committed and not the latest one which I wanted to have in.

I have this problem sometimes, too. What happens is that, when you tell git to add the file to what you want committed, it adds *that version* of the file. If you change it again, you have to add it again.

As I often wrote I would need a lecture on how to use Git.

I don't know about a lecture, but I'm sure someone can give you step-by-step directions. And maybe the best thing about git is that, until you push (not just commit), you can always redo your commits: merge them, split them, whatever.
