.gitignore * but a subfolder seems to be buggy

So I've read the principle but somehow I don't find a way of doing what I want

This is my .gitignore

*
!wp-content/*

And the wp-content folder is like this :

wp-content
  -- index.php
  -- languages/
  -- plugins/
  -- themes/

However it does not take in account the subfolder. I've seen that I shoudl use ** but it is not working either.

What is the proper way to include every file / folder under wp-content?

Please try this. Remember to negate the ignore of .gitignore also, otherwise your rules won't work:

.gitignore

/*
!.gitignore
!wp-content

This comment helped me understand what was going on.
