git_update {worcs}R Documentation

Add, commit, and push changes.

Description

This function is a wrapper for git_add, git_commit, and git_push. It adds all locally changed files to the staging area of the local 'Git' repository, then commits these changes (with an optional) message, and then pushes them to a remote repository. This is used for making a "cloud backup" of local changes. Do not use this function when working with privacy sensitive data, or any other file that should not be pushed to a remote repository. The git_add argument force is disabled by default, to avoid accidentally committing and pushing a file that is listed in .gitignore.
