Git add interactive new file

Question

Is there any way when I am adding new files to my project to make them be picked up by

git add -i

If I make changes to an existing file, then that is ok. But creating a new file it is marked as untracked and git add -i does not pick it up.

Hi...Can you try to use `git add --all` or `git add--interactive` ? — Heena Hussain, Jul 03 '13 at 11:24

When you are in the interactive session of "git add -i" you can use the option number 4 to add untracked files

Sometimes git add . and git add -i does not stage all changes whether tracked or untracked. You could try using git gui to choose which files to stage if you have it installed.
