HI Geertjan, Thanks a bunch - got it working again. When I tried to commit from the command-line, I found out that something crashed during the NB commit and left an index.lock file in the the .git/ directory (not sure why NB couldn't display changed files because of this, though, as the command-line "git status" still worked). Anyway, back up and running now, so thanks again. tom
