Daily Git flow: add, commit, push

Use one simple loop and you'll stay out of trouble:

change files -> git add -> git commit -> git push

1) Check what changed

git status
git diff

This helps you catch accidental edits before they become history.

2) Stage intentionally

git add src/app/page.tsx
git add src/components/ui/button.tsx

Prefer explicit file paths over git add . when you're rushing.

3) Write useful commit messages

Use Conventional Commits to keep history readable:

• feat: add free courses section to homepage
• fix: avoid broken anchor when only free courses exist
• chore: update copy

Good commits make debugging and reviews much faster.

4) Push early

git push -u origin your-branch

Pushing gives you an off-device backup and unlocks pull requests.

Rule of thumb: if a change is meaningful, commit it.
