Question

I keep having this issue where it keeps showing modified: Aisis-Core:

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
adam@adam-VirtualBox:~/Dropbox/AisisGit/Aisis-Core$ git add -A
adam@adam-VirtualBox:~/Dropbox/AisisGit/Aisis-Core$ git status
# On branch tests
# Changes to be committed:
#   (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
#
#   new file:   Aisis-Core
#   new file:   functions.php
#   new file:   index.php
#   new file:   style.css
#
# Changes not staged for commit:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#   (commit or discard the untracked or modified content in submodules)
#
#   modified:   Aisis-Core (modified content, untracked content)

If I do git add -A or git add Aisis-Core then do git status I still see modified: Aisis-Core

thoughts?

Go look at the tutorial at the git documentation page. git add does just stage the changes, until you do a git commit they aren’t really locked away in the repository.
