git commit -am is for weirdos.

You should do a git add .. Then do a git status. Then do git reset because . meant that all the stuff you didn't want to commit also is now in the staging area, then do a manual git add <dst_path> for your paths. Then do a git add . by accident, and repeat.

Not weird. Whenever I use the -a flag on accident I just do git reset HEAD~1, and then do git commit -am on accident again.
