I cloned my Git repository in VS Code, and while I can commit and push changes to existing files, new files or folders I create aren’t recognized. When I run git status, it says my branch is up to date, and I don’t see any options in the Source Control panel for the new files.
What I’ve Tried:
- Checked that new files are in the cloned repository directory.
- Reviewed the .gitignore file for exclusions.
- Reloaded VS Code.
Why isn’t Git recognizing my new files and folders?
How can I add them to my repository and push them to GitHub?
