I would like to make a commit on a branch (master for example).

I am making a repository clone using pygit2 (pygit2.clone_repository)

Then I change an existing file in the repository.

Afterwards I run this to make a commit:

index = repository.index
index.add_all()
index.write()
author = pygit2.Signature(user_name, user_mail)
commiter = pygit2.Signature(user_name, user_mail)
tree = repository.TreeBuilder().write()
oid = repository.create_commit(reference, author, commiter, message,tree,[repository.head.get_object().hex])

But when i go to the repository and run git status:

On branch master
Changes to be committed:
(use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
new file:   test.txt

The modified file seems to be added for commit but the commit did not succeed. Using the returned Oid i can find the commit attribute in the pygit2 repository.

Did I miss something ?
