Track every single change in folder with git

During my last work with Vagrant I need to track every single file change. The easiest way which I found was to create simple git repository in selected folder (with git init of course) and two new functions in PowerShell profile (to edit profile just run notepad $PROFILE):

function buildGitMsg(){  
    $date = Get-Date
    return $date.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

}
function vagrant(){  
    $msg = buildGitMsg;
    $gitRoot=(git rev-parse --show-toplevel).Replace("/","\")
    pushd $gitRoot
    git add .
    git commit -m "$msg"
    popd
    vagrant.exe $args
}

This small change allows me to automatically commit on every run vagrant with arguments.

Small, easy and cool :)
