<p class="MsoNormal">My company is moving to GIT as our source
control after years on SourceGear Vault. I have been learning
and working with GIT on Windows Command Line and GIT Bash
relatively easily, but there are a couple of snags. First,
committing and reverting code require a message/description,
and trying to enter them doesn\u2019t seem to be working properly,
and I get stuck in the commit editor. I do use the -m
parameter in the commit command to get around this, but I
don\u2019t always remember to do so. For revert, it looks like I
need to use the --no-commit parameter, then run a commit -m.
Second, the training books point out that filenames appear in
different colors based on their status, and I have no idea how
to check that in the terminal window. I use the latest version
of JAWS, and I\u2019m wondering if there are keyboard shortcuts for
these issues. Alternatively, are there other GIT editors that
are accessible and handle these problems?<o:p></o:p></p>
