Add Files to a Repository
Learn how to add new files and folders to a repository.
We'll cover the following
The git add Command#
The add command tells Git to start tracking the files in the local index.
1 git add mycode.py
2 git status
You have added a file to the index. It is ready to be committed to the repository.
Remember the four stages you looked at before.
- You created your file ((1) local changes).
- You added/staged it to the index (2).
Still, you have no history! Git has simply been made aware of the file, and you
must make a commit to initiate Git’s history.
3 git log
Fatal#
Does the current branch master not have any commits yet? You will need to commit it to the repository to get a history.
