I tried to stage a bunch of files that I had added to a tools/foo directory inside an existing repository, but they would just stay in untracked files.
I attempted this several times before resorting to a manual git add tools/foo which gave me a warning that I added a git repository (I had forgotten that directory was its own repository).
So I did a rm -rf tools/foo/.git and tried to stage again. This time it worked.
If it helps, I am on a new branch I created with Repository->Create branch and this is the first git operation I've attempted since.
Steps to reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Drop a directory that is itself a git repository into a sub-folder of an open repository which you just created and switched to a new branch on
Try to stage the files by selecting all of them, and right-clicking and choosing 'Stage selected' from the menu
Expected behavior
Files are staged, or an error message appears indicating a problem.
