The changes of the commit can be shown by `git show COMMIT_ID`. Where the
`COMMIT_ID` is the identifier obtained from `git log` command.
+# Changes - check out before commit
+The status of the repository can be checked by `git status` command. This
+allows you to see *new files* that are not yet tracked, *changed files* whose
+changes are not yet ready to be commited to the log history and *changed files*
+that are ready.
+
+The `git diff` command shows *changes* in not-yet-ready files and `git diff
+--cached` shows *changes* that are ready to be committed.
