The problem is that the folder contents of 04 - Software/SW Code/STM32/Lib/Drivers/CMSIS/Device/ are ignored because of a suspected misinterpretation of .gitignore. Here are some results that you could find useful: $ git clean -ndX Would remove 04 - Software/SW Code/STM32/Lib/Drivers/CMSIS/Device/ $ git check-ignore -v "04 - Software/SW Code/STM32/Lib/Drivers/CMSIS/Device/" 04 - Software/SW Code/STM32/Lib/Drivers/CMSIS/.gitignore:2:Device 04 - Software/SW Code/STM32/Lib/Drivers/CMSIS/Device/ Since in the path there is no '~' (tilde) character, it seems a bug to me.

It looks like you have a .gitignore file in the "CMSIS" directory that contains the string "Device", which is why this directory is ignored. Is that indeed the case? -- brian m. carlson: Houston, Texas, US OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204 ``` ## Celestino, Federico, 2019-02-25 07:38 Subject: RE: .gitignore alleged bug Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/f8697f8e02614842b35931346c2d81e7%40SRV-ERC-MAIL01.XCMG-ERC.LOCAL In-Reply-To: <20190223002339.GA601925@genre.crustytoothpaste.net> ``` Dear Mr Carlson, Yes, you are right.
