Step 2 − Now, create a new file and add some content to that file as shown below −
The content 'Welcome to Tutorialspoint' will be added to the rebase_file.md file.
Step 3 − Add the new file to working directory and store the changes to the repository along with the message (by using the git commit command) as shown below −
