As I said, it was unintentional, and may possibly have been a mistake
with git deciding to helpfully add the subdirectory and files to a
parent .git directory, or thought I was in the parent directory (e.g. cd
... or cd - to wrong directory) and used e.g.:
$ git add *.cygport *.patch; git commit -m '...'
I've been typing ahead blind on slow links, systems, and terminals,
since using TECO over 110 dialup with noecho on a TTY for speedup! ;^>
That way you get a lot of experience by recovering from serious errors!
