When I have:

  • dirty working directory,
  • dirty staging area,
  • and I copied some new files to the project,

how do I stage only the new ones?

git alias adduntracked=…
git bash scripting

git add -u is what I use to stage untracked.

Edit: comments below have reminded me that its git add . that adds untracked (along with changed files, which I think is not what you want?). I use the git add -u to stage deleted files.
