Apologies if I've misunderstood, as I must admit to not being a git user, but I believe this is exactly the situation for which we added the "-a" switch to debcommit. >From 2.10.6's changelog: * debcommit: When using git, allow either all files or only those in the index to be committed. Thanks to Martin F Kraft and Junichi Uekawa for the patch. (Closes: #402539, #427429, #433081) Without -a, debcommit uses "git-diff --cached" and "git commit $files"; with -a, it uses "git-diff" and "git commit -a". Please see the discussion in #427429 for further details. Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
