[git-users] git add and untracked file

2012-01-10 Thread Kevin Wilson
Hello,
My aim is to add to a git tree changes in modified files and to create
a patch. I do **not**
want that the patch will contain  untracked files.
When I try git add -A, it adds  also the untracked files, and later,
after git commit -m blablabla and
git format -n1, I see the  untracked files in the patch.

I know that I can add the name  for each untracked file in .gitignore;
in this way , the patch will not include
the untracked files; but I need a way to achieve this without adding
to .gitignore each untracked files.

So - is there a way to perform git add only on modifed files (and not
by adding each modified  file separatel by git add) ? is there a way
to list of modified files only (to use it later)?
rgs,
Kevin

[git-users] Help! Git deleted my files!

2012-01-10 Thread Trans
I just added the complete contents of a directory to my project, and 
committed.

  $ git add foo/
  $ git commit -m Add foo.

Then I realized that I actually did not want to add all those files. So I 
tried to step back with:

  $ git reset --hard HEAD^

Git rolled back the commit okay, but also DELETED ALL THE FILES in that 
directory!

Please tell me there is a way to them back. And why the heck did git think 
it okay to delete them?

I figured it out.

  $ git reflog

Then

  $ git checkout -b someName shaOfResetCommit

Thankfully git doesn't actually delete anything for some 90 days after the 
fact.

My mistake was to use `--hard`, but I didn't think it would delete the 
files b/c there were not being tracked before this particular commit. 

Lesson learned!
