Changing files and committing those changes.

  1. Use a text editor to add Manfred Delmonte to a new line in files/employees.txt and Peaches to a new line in files/products.txt.
  2. Stage the changes that you made to the files. Use the git status command to check that you have staged all of your changes.
  3. Commit your staged changes using the commit message "Add Manfred and Peaches".

Pushing

If you have your own repository containing this exercise (e.g. a fork) then you can push the changes you made.
