We use AzureDevops. In Team Explorer, the changes area shows the modified files to check in. Some have an asterisk beside them. What does the asterisk mean? I think they are files that have been touched / modified, but are still identical to the ones in the git repository. Is that correct? They are definitely saved, unlike the asterisks on file tabs.

Normally the asterisks in changes panel should correspond to the asterisks on file tabs. See:
The asterisk besides Program.cs file change panel means that we've done some changes to Program.cs file in solution explore while we haven't save this change in file system.
Normally if we click the Save All(Ctrl+Shift+S) button, then the asterisks should disappear both on file tabs and in Changes Panel. If that doesn't work well in your current project, save all changes and then restart VS or reload the project to check if the issue goes away.
