From 11920d28da1ac1b65eb4041c1b7355924e5d1366 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Chacon Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2008 22:14:55 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Add a built-in alias for 'stage' to the 'add' command This comes from conversation at the GitTogether where we thought it would be helpful to be able to teach people to 'stage' files because it tends to cause confusion when told that they have to keep 'add'ing them. This continues the movement to start referring to the index as a staging area (eg: the --staged alias to 'git diff'). Also adds a doc file for 'git stage' that basically points to the docs for 'git add'.
