Man git -add

UNIX macOS
1

I meant to type in:

man git-add //no space

but I typed this in instead:

man git -add // space between git and -add

There were all these spewing out; not quite sure what I did. I am new to unix and the terminal. Does anyone know what man git -add does and how do I undo something?

Thanks

man means manual page. So in this case you were trying to read the manual page for git-add. This is not destructive.

man man will explain the man command.

Thanks for your help blackrageous. Glad to hear I didn't do anything destructive. Is there a way to undo commands?
