Answer 2

I had done above solutions , finally this works solved my problem :

• Close the visual studio

• Run the git bash in the project folder

  git add .

  git commit -m "[your comment]"

Just add the .vs folder to the .gitignore file.

Here is the template for Visual Studio from GitHub's collection of .gitignore templates, as an example:
https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/VisualStudio.gitignore

If you have any trouble adding the .gitignore file, just follow these steps:

1. On the Team Explorer's window, go to Settings.

2. Then access Repository Settings.

3. Finally, click Add in the Ignore File section.

Done. ;)
This default file already includes the .vs folder.
