Subject: 'git commit .' in a subdirectory also commits staged files in other subdirectories
Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2022 12:40:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3a4dfad5-0f2e-14d8-61f2-779616de1ae0@tsoft.com> (raw)
I had several staged files in various subdirectories of the cloned
repository tree.
'git commit .' in one of them attempted to commit all of them, not only
the files in that subdirectory.
This is a very unreasonable behavior, because while being in any
subdirectory 'git commit .' should only affect that subdirectory, and
not files elsewhere.
