hi,
i like to change some tracked files without committing them. when i do
"git commit -a", every change is comitted.
sometimes i like to play with layer1 code or even change Makefile.inc,
but i don't want to reset my changes before committing.
any idea how to create a list of omitted files?

look at the .gitignore file. Since it's checked in, you need to add it
to itself as well ...
Also, you might want to look at 'git citool' to cherry pick what you
want to commit (down to chunk/line selection).
There is also a '-i' interactive commit mode.
Also, in either 'git citool' or by adding the '-v' option to commit,
you can view the changes you're about to commit and I always find that
useful to look at it for a few seconds before committing.
Cheers,
Sylvain

Two ways:
"git commit -a" = "git add ." + "git commit"
You can use git add directly, to control exactly what is included in
the index (tracked) and later committed. Then you run only git commit
to create the commit.
As an alternative or perhaps complement, if making temporary changes
for testing in the middle of something else, check out git stash. It
pushes all uncommitted changes onto a temporary patch stash, and they
can be recalled easily later.
