gitignore - fatal: no files added

Question

I have an issue with git, more precisely with gitignore.

I have created an empty folder Initialized git

mkdir fold
cd fold
git init

Answer 1

you should run git add . rather than git add *

the * is interpreted by the shell and substituted with all file and folder in the current location. obviously ftc.prjx is one of them and git is just warning that the file is in the ignorelist.
