Message-ID: <34230C98-81B8-4DC8-846F-8B6FA2A022DA@gmx.de> I made a branch and deleted a folder there with git rm -rf foldername. So now i have to branches, A with the folder and B without the folder. I'm on B, the folder is not there. Then I check out A, the folder shows up like it should. When I check out B again, the folder is still there. A git rm -rf folder gives me: fatal: pathspec 'folder/' did not match any files , so git is not tracking the folder. I can rm -rf the filder without git and start the whole game from the beginning, but there has to be a better way? Strange enough this happens just to two folders I removed, with others there is no problem. -benjamin
