Staging in Git refers to a phase which includes all the changes you want to include in the next commit . Here are the steps leading to staging:

  • You make changes to a file in the working directory.
  • You use the Git add command to move those changes from the working directory to the staging area .
  • Git does not save changes yet. You need to run the Git commit command to move changes from the staging area to the local repository .

Additionally, you may use git status command to check the status of the files and the staging area. If changes are not staged for commit, they won’t be saved .

The Git add command moves changes to the staging area .

Here is a basic example of using add :

git add file_name
