 Initializing the git repository is something we only need to do once per project.
 
+It's a good idea to use a `git status` command before `git add` or whenever you find yourself unsure of what will be done, to prevent any surprises from happening (e.g. wrong files will be added or commited). The `git status` command returns information about any untracked/modifed/staged files, branch status and much more. The output should be similar to:
+
+    $ git status
+    On branch master
+
+    Initial commit
+
+    Untracked files:
+      (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
+
+      .gitignore
+      Procfile
+      mysite/__init__.py
+      mysite/settings.py
+      mysite/urls.py
+      mysite/wsgi.py
+      manage.py
+      requirements.txt
+      runtime.txt
+
+    nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
+
 And finally we save our changes. Go to your console and run these commands:
 
     $ git add -A .
