I get git-status at ~/bin:
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
# screen/dev/
I run
git add --force screen/dev/
I get the same git-status as before. I add each file in the folder independently, but I get the same git-status.
There is no .git in screen/dev/. The folder seems not to be a sumbodule.
How can you add a folder and its content with force to my git at ~/bin?
回答1:
You should not need '--force' or '-f' option: see git add:
-f--force:
Allow adding otherwise ignored files.
In your case, you may not want to add all files, included ignored files under screen/dev directory.
git add screen/dev
should be enough (without options or ending '/')

The problem can be solved by renaming the folder and adding the folder with a new name to Git.
This suggests me that there must be some file manipulating the folder name dev.
回答3:
Is that a typo on cut paste?
If not, it should be
git add --force screen/dev
回答4:
Try doing:
git add -A .
Also, if you have a .gitignore file it's also possible that you are unintentionally ignoring something (ie: possibly the files you are trying to add).

If nothing works...
- Move the stubborn directory to a temp location outside the repo
- Remove any remaining traces of the stubborn directory in the repo
- Push and make sure that local is synced with remote
- Move the stubborn directory from the temp location back to the repo (You don't have to rename)
git add -A- Commit and push

I've also found that you have to have at least a file in that dir in order to be picked up by git. git add screen/dev won't work if there are no files inside.
