cg-add - add files to the git repository
cg-add [-N] [-r] FILE…
Takes a list of file names at the command line, and schedules them for addition to the GIT repository at the next commit.
The command will fail if one of the given files does not exist.
Note that directories never have to be added to the repository, and are not tracked on their own. That means, you cannot currently add an empty directory to Cogito. The reason for this is that Cogito manages content and empty directories have no content. Directories are added automatically when adding files inside them, or you can add all files in a directory using cg-add -r.
Only update the cache: do not copy the data into the object database. This is for special purposes when you might not actually _have_ any object database. This option is normally not interesting.
If you pass cg-add this flag and any directory names, it will try to add files in those directories recursively (with regard to your ignore rules - see cg-status(1) for a more detailed description of those). See also above for more notes about cg-add vs. directories.

Print user manual. The same as found in cg-add(1).
