Hi 

git add / git commit will add your file to the local copy of your git repository, afterwards - if configured via git remote - you can use git push to sync the data over to the repo.

There is a nice tutorial around that available at https://www.atlassian.com/de/git/tutorials/learn-git-with-bitbucket-cloud

Cheers

Kurt

[Kurt Klinner]

@Coolvibes Reloaded sorry my bad, can you provide more details on your scenario.

[Kurt Klinner]

@Coolvibes Reloaded 

Without any further details it is hard to determine what the problem is. Have you tried a newer/different git version?

[Coolvibes Reloaded]

@Kurt Klinner how do I find out my git version

[Coolvibes Reloaded]

@Kurt Klinner i can't even find out my git version as it keeps saying bug forkbomb

I had the same problem, I reinstalled git and it worked.

[Abdul Rehman Shahid]

Hey guys, sorry for the late reply but the actual problem of this is that The folder git is installed is got corrupted or either some of git files are missing. Dur is right that when you reinstall it will start working.
As we all know what forking is so git has a security for not getting used for bad purposes.

[Martin Topolánek]

For those who have had the same experience. In my case, it was the fault of the antivirus, which threw one git file into the quarantine.

Reinstalling git helped.
