\TARgv24> git status

Check the status of your working directory.

Output:

On branch JekaterinaG
nothing to commit, working tree clean

This means: you’re on the branch JekaterinaG, and there are no changes to commit – your working tree is clean.

C:\Users\kotik\TARgv24> git status

Output:

On branch JekaterinaG
Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
  modified: nimi.txt

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

Explanation:
You are still on the branch JekaterinaG, and the file nimi.txt has been modified, but the changes are not yet staged for commit. Git is suggesting to either:

  • Use git add to stage the file for commit
  • Or use git restore to discard the changes
