title: GitHub - Unsynchronized Commit?
body: <p>I made a bunch of changes to files in a git repository. Before I committed anything I was asked to commit some other files someone else had for me (coming from an SVN repository). I dropped those files into my project folder, picked them from amongst all of the changed files from earlier and committed them. Now I need to Sync the branch to get these to move to Github but when I try to sync I get "Uncommitted Changes. Please commit your changes before syncing".</p>
  
  <p>I assume this refers to all of the files I had changed previously? However, I do not want those so be committed... they are not ready. I only want to commit this small subset of files. What does one do in this situation? How do I move all of the changes I've made that I do NOT want to be a part of this commit out of the way, for lack of a better word, and get the part I DO want to change into the github repository?</p>
  
  <p>I'm using the GitHub App but can do it from the command line if needed... just not sure what needs to be done.</p>

  <p>Here are some screenshots to make it clearer:</p>
  
  <p>At the bottom of my list of changed files is the commit I want to move:</p>

  <p>Trying to get that commit to move over to github I click the Sync button and get:</p>

  <p>What is the solution? How do I get these "uncommitted changes" out of the way? Obviously I am new to git so I am not clear on the correct approach. Thanks.</p>
