git not adding existing folder

Question

I started working on a project recently, then decided to push it up to github. So I did the following:

cd 
git init
git add -A
git commit -m \'me         


        

Answer 1

Are there files in the folder? Git doesn't track folders, only files; you can't add an empty folder to a Git repo. However, you can put an empty file in that folder (.gitignore or .blank are common file names) and add those files to the folder.
