Writing a good save message
A short description helps you and your team remember what changed:
If you don’t provide a message, Anchor4Git uses the current date and time:
This is fine, but a descriptive message is much more helpful later!
What gets saved?
Everything in your workspace is saved in one snapshot:
- New files you created
- Changes to existing files
- Files you deleted
One thing is never saved: the Anchor4Git configuration file (your personal settings stay private).
Preview mode
To see what would be saved:
This shows:
- The save message
- Your name and email (as the author)
- A list of every changed file
If there’s nothing to save
If you run ag save but haven’t changed anything, you’ll see:
This means no files have changed since the last save.
When should I save?
Save whenever you’ve completed a piece of work:
- After finishing a feature
- Before taking a break
- Before running
ag fetch (it auto-saves anyway, but it’s good practice)
- Before running
ag upload
