+ Check once more that everything you want is added. Use the <b>git status</b> command to check for untracking changes/files, and adapt accordingly.
+ Once you've committed everything, your changes will appear in a <i>diff</i> format, using this command:
+ $ <b>git show</b><br/>
+ Use PgUp/PgDown to navigate the diff output. This uses the <i>less</i> utility, so all the features from that (e.g. keyword search) are also available.
