git-commit(1)
=============
NAME
----
git-commit - Record your changes
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-commit' [-a] [-s] [-v] [(-c | -C) <commit> | -F <file> | -m <msg>] [-e] <file>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Updates the index file for given paths, or all modified files if
'-a' is specified, and makes a commit object. The command
VISUAL and EDITOR environment variables to edit the commit log
message.
This command can run `commit-msg`, `pre-commit`, and
`post-commit` hooks. See link:hooks.html[hooks] for more
information.
OPTIONS
-------
-a::
Update all paths in the index file.
-c or -C <commit>::
Take existing commit object, and reuse the log message
and the authorship information (including the timestamp)
when creating the commit. With '-C', the editor is not
invoked; with '-c' the user can further edit the commit
message.
-F <file>::
Take the commit message from the given file. Use '-' to
read the message from the standard input.
-m <msg>::
Use the given <msg> as the commit message.
-s::
Add Signed-off-by line at the end of the commit message.
-v::
Look for suspicious lines the commit introduces, and
abort committing if there is one. The definition of
'suspicious lines' is currently the lines that has
trailing whitespaces, and the lines whose indentation
has a SP character immediately followed by a TAB
character.
-e::
The message taken from file with `-F`, command line with
`-m`, and from file with `-C` are usually used as the
commit log message unmodified. This option lets you
further edit the message taken from these sources.
<file>...::
Update specified paths in the index file before committing.
