staging - How do I stage all files at once in Git Gui?

Question

I have just created a GIT on a folder. I now want to add the contents of that folder by "staging" all the files. In the GUI, is there a way to select all the files. I have well over 4000 files and clicking one at a time is proving to be a bit of a pain.

Answer 1

Yes,

Select the items (select top one hit shift, select bottom one) and hit CTRL T

Or go to commit -> stage to commit
