This is *exactly* what I did:

I am developing against the trunk (alpha) version.

Also:

do so, in the save version dialog, yellow-click any change and choose

This is what I also did, and caused the weird commit that we are

to ignore everything. Then select the single changes you would like to
commit and press cmd + shift + i again.

Ah, new trick.  Wish I had known this - selecting ignore on each of the
