Aptana 3 git commit

I am trying to use git to keep track of any work I do on my current project. So what I want to be able to do is no matter what machine I am on, my laptop or desktop, is pull down the current snapshot of the project, make any changes and add new files then commit it back to the repository.

I am using Aptana 3 and I was able to clone my repository but when I selected all of the files and selected commit, no changes were made to the repository on github.

Any ideas why this would be happening?

Git has 3 distinct operations that happen in order to put new changes into a remote repository:

  1. Changes are added to the local staging area.
  2. The local staging area is committed.
  3. The resulting new local commit is pushed to the remote repository.

What you tried to do may have only accomplished #2, which means that nothing was actually committed (due to #1 not having been done). Furthermore, nothing would show up on GitHub until #3 was done as well.
