[Geany] VC on Windows

[Murray Collingwood]

Hello

I have Geany and GeanvyVC working nicely on my Linux machine.

ON LINUX:
I installed 'git'
I created a clone from my local server.
>From Geany I make a change to the file, test, and then right mouse on the
file and select "VC Commit" - enter some comments and click 'Commit'

ON WINDOWS (Vista)
I installed 'git bash'
I created a clone from the same local server.
>From Geany I make a change to the file, test, and then right mouse on the
file and select "VC Commit" - nothing happens.
I try Tools | VC and the Status, Update and Commit options are all grayed
out.

>From 'git bash' I can change to the directory where the files and repository
exist and run 'git status' - it shows me a status but indicates the updates
are not ready for commit.  So I ran 'git add {filename}' (which btw I didn't
think should be necessary as I didn't do this on Linux).   'git status' now
shows the file ready for commit.  Back in Geany there is still no action
when I select 'VC Commit'.  'Status' is still grayed out.  Back in 'git
bash' I can run 'git commit -a' which commits the change.

I clearly have two problems:

1) Why isn't GeanyVC recognising the git repository.

2) Why didn't the clone add these files to the index? (This is probably
better directed at the 'git' forum, I just thought it best to at least
mention it here so you know the full picture)

Cheers
Murray
