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.
