Why is "git add" adding "C:/Program Files/Git/" in front of a given path startin-CodePudding

While I am trying to do git add for a folder or for all files, I am getting the fatal error as shown below.

MINGW64 /c/xampp/htdocs/d95x-dev (master)
$ git add /vendor
fatal: C:/Program Files/Git/vendor: 'C:/Program Files/Git/vendor' is outside repository at 'C:/xampp/htdocs/d95x-dev'

It is automatically adding this path C:/Program Files/Git/ in front of the folder name that I am trying to add.

Why is it doing this?

My folder is at the path C:/xampp/htdocs/d95x-dev, how can I tell git add to add C:/xampp/htdocs/d95x-dev/vendor instead?

CodePudding user response：

Try

git add vendor/

Or, You can also add all the files using

git add .
