From 9d5fc59d120e2779ebe9ad0c947363785f1856b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Petr Baudis Date: Wed, 29 Aug 2007 00:41:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] git-add: Make the filename globbing note a bit clearer I think the trick with Git-side filename globbing is important and perhaps not that well known. Clarify a bit in git-add documentation what it means.
