    copied!<p>Ok, I think I've screwed things up, I am working on a project and using git as version control:</p> <p>I think I screwed up somewhere along the lines and now when I say git status I get:</p> <pre><code># Not currently on any branch. # Changes not staged for commit: # (use "git add &lt;file&gt;..." to update what will be committed) # (use "git checkout -- &lt;file&gt;..." to discard changes in working directory) # # modified: Cocina/bin/Debug/Cocina.exe # modified: Cocina/bin/Debug/Cocina.pdb # modified: Cocina/obj/x86/Debug/Cocina.exe # modified: Cocina/obj/x86/Debug/Cocina.pdb # modified: Viernes 7.suo # # Untracked files: # (use "git add &lt;file&gt;..." to include in what will be committed) # # Cocina/Info.cs # Cocina/bin/Debug/Cocina.vshost.exe.manifest # Viernes 7/Properties/DataSources/ # Viernes 7/Table.cs # Viernes 7/bin/Debug/Viernes 7.vshost.exe.manifest # Viernes 7/obj/x86/Debug/ResolveAssemblyReference.cache # back/ # tables/ no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") </code></pre> <p>I have everything I did [here][1], but it's a quite long, but maybe it help out.</p> <p>The only thing I know for a fact is that in this commit I am sure everything is working as I wanted, and them everything started going south with the merges...</p> <pre><code>PS C:\Users\Trufa\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Viernes 7&gt; git commit -am "the lisview now saves indexes of allr eady clicks and deletes when table closes" </code></pre> <p>Can I go back and check how the files where at that moment?</p> <hr> <p>Sorry to the answerers I lost my Internet connexion right after I posted the question!</p> <p>So <strong>UPDATE:</strong></p> <p>I had a copy of git gui from github that helped me visualize what the different commits.</p> <p>There was some kind of a conflict with the .exe 's and it prevented me from doing more or less anything I couldn't merge and I couldn't commit and I couldn't check out so what I did was copied my non working but correct commit and put in into another project in the same solution. </p> <p>So the question is what should I do now?</p> <p>I would be happy to "start" over, I mean at this point the project is working as it should so I would like to commit it, so now, what should I do?</p> <p>I guess the whole problem was for not using a complete gitignore file, what happens if I add it now?</p> <p>So my question is what should I do now, I'm kind of afraid of braking things because I'm on a hurry, what is the simplest solution of all? Is it a big overkill to start the git repo from scratch, delete the git and start over from this point since It's working?</p> <p>I know this sounds a little bit mediocre but I don't have much time so I really don't want to be playing around learning about git, I'll have time for that later, now I want an easy fix.</p>
