Stackoveflow. I’m a noob…so be gentle.

Question #1: After a new install, did a commit for README file no problem. Made changes to README with a text editor, made a new commit, and nada…the changes did not show in GitHub’s online repository. I’ve checked all necessary keys, etc. Had to do “git push” to make local working directory changes appear in online repository…at which point, yes, committed changes are then visible in GitHub. Is that normal?

Question #2: re-posted here…

Adding a Directory to be Tracked in Git; Error Message; Size Limit for Adds?

Question #3: re-posted here…

Gedit with Git in Windows?

    Answer #1: Yes, that’s normal. Creating a commit only affects your local repository. You need to push or pull commits to move them between repositories. It’s not like subversion 🙂

    Answers #2 and #3: No idea. Sorry.

    Hopefully at least #1 is cleared up for you.

    @Pablo might be right: try creating new questions for 2 and 3, as they are pretty much unrelated.
