Git - Add all new files in the repo

Question

I'm trying to automate an update process. The process is basically:

1. Check out repo A
2. Check out repo B
3. Run a process in repo B that updates/creates a bunch of files
4. Copy files into repo A
5. Compile repo A and make sure it doesn't fail
6. Commit changes into repo A and repo B
7. Push changes to the remote server.

Everything is working as expected except step 6. I can commit the changes, but how do I commit any new files? I tried git add . as I've read elsewhere but that doesn't catch all the new files in all the sub directories. Is there an easy way to do a "Add all new files"?

Answer 1

git add -A

will stage all modifications to the working tree. Add really means "include in the index" or "add changes to the index".

Answer 2

Take a look here . Perhaps you're interested in git add -u or git add -A .

Answer 3

您可以使用git add -A如前所述或git add --all命令git add --all

Answer 4

I know I'm late to the party here, but you can also do git -a -m "commit message here" . This takes care of adding files as well as committing them in one command. I use this command pretty heavily.
