选定文件上的git存储库提交

Question

I am having a problem in git repository on selected files commit.

As in SCM or SVN if I have modified 4 files.But want to commit only two then I can easily commit the selected files only.

But in git when using cmd: git commit -a.It is going to commit all modified files. If use cmd like git commit filename filename.It is not working.

So any help how to commit only selected files in git.

Answer 1

Don't use git commit -a if you don't want to commit everything - since -a is "commit all".

Instead, use git add <filename> to add the files you want to commit, and the just git commit .

For example, if you have three files foo , bar , and baz , and you want to only commit the changes to foo and bar , then do:

git add foo
git add bar
git commit

(You could also do git add foo bar to add both files in a single command.)

Answer 2

Now it is working.

From the git doc :

git commit ... <file> ...​
When files are given on the command line, the command commits the contents of the named files, without recording the changes already staged. The contents of these files are also staged for the next commit on top of what have been staged before.

To commit only some (added!) files do this:

git commit sample_file1.txt sample2.php file3.cs
