+ +When you add a new file in the working folder, you normally want to +ensure that Mercurial keeps track of changes to that file – and that +the file is included in all copies of the repository. To do this, you +need to tell Mercurial to track the file by adding it to version +control.
+ +EasyMercurial shows files that have been created but not added in the +“Untracked” file list under “My Work”. (If your file is not listed +there, try clicking the Refresh button.)
+ +1. Find the file you want to add in the Untracked list and select it
+ +2. Click Add in the toolbar on the left of the window
+ +The file will be moved to the “Added” list. This tells Mercurial to +track the file. The next time you commit, the contents of your new +file will be recorded as part of that change set. +
Of course, you don't always want to track every file in your working +copy. Object files generated by a compiler, output files from tests, +etc should often not be included in version control. You can ensure +that such files don't show up in the Untracked list by right-clicking +on them and choosing “Ignore...".
+ +Click the Commit button in the toolbar on the left to commit all of +the changes you have made to tracked files in your working folder. +That is, all files listed as “Modified”, “Removed”, or “Added” +under “My Work”.
+ +(If the files you have changed are still listed as “Untracked”, then +you must add them before you can commit. See I've added a new file....
+ +When you commit your changes, you will be asked for a commit message +which will accompany that change set in the history. Enter something +that will help you remember – and other readers understand – what +you have changed and why.
+ +If you want to commit only some files, right-click on them in the list +and choose Commit from the context menu. +
