title: NetBeans and Git: I did install Git plugin but does not connect to repo after initializing, nor adds files
body: <p>I have NetBeans 7.01 and installed the Git plugin from the plugins panel</p>
  
  <p>After installation was completed and NetBeans restarted
  I have right clicked on one of my projects, selected "versioning" and initizialized a git repo; I chose to have the .git folder inside the root of the project</p>
  
  <p>However, that didn't do nothing. I checked the output terminal, all it says is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>==[IDE]== 19-gen-2012 4.50.35 Initializing ...
  Initializing repository
  Creating git D:\Siti\Current\nellaterradisandokan.com\content\themes/.git directory
  git init D:\Siti\Current\nellaterradisandokan.com\content\themes
  ==[IDE]== 19-gen-2012 4.50.37 Ignoring...
  ==[IDE]== 19-gen-2012 4.50.39 Initializing ... finished.
  ignoring D:\Siti\Current\nellaterradisandokan.com\content\themes\nbproject\private 
  nbproject/private
  ==[IDE]== 19-gen-2012 4.50.39 Ignoring... finished.
  ==[IDE]== 19-gen-2012 4.51.08 Connecting
  ==[IDE]== 19-gen-2012 4.51.08 Connecting finished.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>however, no files were actually added to git, while they should have been automatically..: I can't add files manually because the project is not connected to Git. If I right click again on the project and try to connect, the console tries to connect, says "Connecting finished", but nothing is connected.</p>
  
  <p>from the output above looks like it's ignoring the whole folder where the files are, but why?</p>
  
  <p>How do I make this work? I'm new to Git.</p>
