So "add" is really "add to files that I want to commit".  Do I also use 
it to add new files?

So "commit" doesn't actually commit?  And why the pull again?

Do all of these extra steps seem reasonable to git users?

Is there a config file like in SVN where I can make that a default 
argument?  Or, can I do "git commit Makefile pkgin" without the "add" 
instead?
