I agree that this is indeed a good goal. But I find that you often

Yes, that is because of the git mess. I think that I am not too stupid
but git is nothing for me. Now after years it is still a mystery why
e.g. often some files are not committed despite I selected them to be
committed. Also often an older version from my tree is committed and
not the latest one which I wanted to have in.
I have this problem sometimes, too. What happens is that, when you tell
git to add the file to what you want committed, it adds *that version*
of the file. If you change it again, you have to add it again.
As I often wrote I would need a lecture on how to use Git.
I don't know about a lecture, but I'm sure someone can give you
step-by-step directions. And maybe the best thing about git is that,
until you push (not just commit), you can always redo your commits:
merge them, split them, whatever.
