Git add single subdirectory recursively

Question

I know I can add everything in my working directory with the following syntax:

git add .

I also know I can add the contents of a subdirectory with this syntax:

git add subdir/*

But how do I add everything (recursively) in a single subdirectory? I imagine it looks something like this:

git add subdir/.

`git add subdir/.` should work as well. Why don't you just try it? — Sven Marnach, Feb 13 '15 at 13:49

git add subdir will add subdir and everything in it recursively.
