Differences between "Git RM" and "RM" (reprinted)

This is a superficial problem, but it is necessary for beginners of git to mention it.

UseGit RMTo delete the file, and the delete operation record will be down;
UseRmTo delete a file. It only deletes a physical file and does not remove it from the GIT record.

Intuitively,Git RMDelete the file and runGit commit-M "ABC"When the file is submitted, the file deletion operation is automatically submitted.

ForRmCommand to directly delete the file, runGit commit-M "ABC"When the file is submitted, the operation to delete the file is not submitted.
It doesn't matter, even if you already passRmDelete an object, or useGit RMCommand to delete the file from the GIT record again.Git commit-M "ABC"You can also submit the deletion operation later.

If you accidentally useRmCommand to delete a large number of files?
Yes.Git RMDeleting a file one by one seems quite painful.
Fortunately, there are more convenient solutions. There is no problem if you submit them in the following way:Git commit-am "ABC"

Summary:

When deleting a file in a directory managed by git, you can record the deletion action in the following two ways:
I,Rm+Git commit-am "ABC"
II,Git RM+Git commit-M "ABC"
In addition,Git add.Only added and modified actions can be recorded. The deletion action depends onGit RM.
Finally,RmThe deleted file is inNot stagedStatus, that is, the status between "not modified" and "submitted.

Below is the test diagram

II,Git add.Unable to recordRmDelete action

III,Git commit-M "ABC"Unable to submitRmDelete action

IV,Git commit-am "ABC"Role of parameter
