File will not sync after committing in GitHub Windows client?

Question

Some of my files will not sync to my Github account after numerous attempts to commit and then sync. I don't get an error message, but the files never show up on my account after clicking on "sync".

The easiest way to debug that kind of behaviour is to open a shell directly from GitHub for Windows:

You can then check the result of:

git status
git add -A 
git commit -m "new commit"
git push
