BTW: The tutorial on http://git-scm.com/ is IHMO wrong:
git --version
git version 1.6.2.5
git commit -m 'Explain what I changed'

git commit -a -m 'Explain what I changed'
=> Otherwise changed files are not committed, only added ones.
=> Therefore that are 2 commit ...
If you mean the snippets right on the front page, it assumes that you 
add all edited files.
BTW2:
Why is it necessary to do:
# Displays only changed files
git diff
# Displays only added files
git diff --cached

I would like to have a full diff of my changes:
git diff -a
(or better "git diff -a" should be the default behaviour, I think that's
very confusing for new users)
What are 'your' changes? Between HEAD and the working tree (aka. git 
diff HEAD)?
