### handle staging

### Commit files
commit() {

    ## Track file deletes
     git ${prefix} add -u

    # Committing

### Check if current directory is a git repository

then
    handleArgs $@
else
    printf "${blue_bold}%s${none}\n" "This Directory is not a Git repository";

### Done
exit 0

How it works...
