VSCode Question

[ankonaskiff17]

I’m using VSCode to make changes to css and js. Make a change, save, move on or undo depending on results.
I noticed this morning something about “Staged Changes” and Commit on Master. I want to 1) make sure that “master” is the local file when I did git clone abcfile.git and not something that is tied back to file I cloned from.
2) What/Why did this show up today since I have been using for a bit now and the number of staged changes is significantly less than the changes I’ve made AND two of the staged changes are for some package-lock.json files I certainly haven’t even looked at.

Only thing I did beteen yesterday & today was to do that update to Pi OS that was flagged in my notifications
