Over the last few days I've been reading up on Git. The staging aspect is interesting but I'll probably just bypass it for most things I commit and push. This website is a pretty good reference:

Now that I think I know how to use Git a little I decided to tackle an easy issue, adding some icons. Thanks to Kenney and Unity prefabs this was a really easy task. Attached are before and after screenshots. And btw, its all been committed and pushed to GitLab. Its nice to be working in CM.
