I've forked a remote Git repository, so I get it on my PC.

I've added two folders and two files but Git doens't recognize commit.

I try to launch this command:

git commit -m "my message"

but my folders and files are under section:

"Untracked files".

So, for Git there are nothing to commit.

I've installed Git on Windows 7 and as development environment I use Spring Framework.

You should git add them first. Or call git commit -a so they get added automatically. You always need to add new files before they are staged and then you can commit.

  • I forgot that quite often as well when I started with git. You get used to it later.
