 <p>I can't quite make out what you're trying to say. Are the folders still empty, or is there content in them now?</p> <p>Git doesn't track folders, it only tracks files. So you can't add an empty folder into the Git repo, if that's what you're trying to do. If you really want the directory there, the standard practice is to add an empty <code>.gitkeep</code> file into it, so that Git has some content to track there. Then you would <code>git add foldername</code> and commit it.</p>
