But then when i type,

git add . 

command nothing happens.How can i add all the newly added files from local to bitbucket?

Answer 1

git add . will stage all new and modified files.

git add -A will stage all the files including the deleted ones(existing).

Commit your changes:

git commit -m <message>

You need to the push the changes to the remote repository

git push origin <branch>

In case, if you have not set up your remote repository. You can do it by:

git remote add origin <repo_url>
