see:

https://github.com/zencart/zencart/blob/v158/.gitignore

one can also configure a global .gitignore for ones workstation which are not part of any specific repo.

someone who is new to git changing heads has problems written all over it (IMO). i would suggest reading up on changing branches.

good luck.

Carl that helps. I did not know that the configure.php files were ignored by Git and that was my problem! Thank you! I have been reading everything I can.
