Git not pushing all files

I have a www folder in which I have all my project files within their respective folder. I update those individual projects in git regularly.

Recently I tried pushing the whole www folder in a complete different repository but it ignored the Projects which were already pushed into their respective repo.

enter image description here

Here I have pset7 folder as a complete different repo, But when I try to push the parent (ie www) its ignoring all the files in pset7 and showing as empty directory on GitHub.

When you push the parent repo, it will not push the submodules contained within it. You can use the command git push --recurse-submodules.

Additionally, you can use the options check and on-demand:

  • If check is used, it will be checked that all submodule commits that changed in the revisions to be pushed are available on a remote. Otherwise the push will be aborted and exit with non-zero status. If on-demand is used, all submodules that changed in the revisions to be pushed will be pushed.

  • If on-demand was not able to push all necessary revisions it will
    also be aborted and exit with non-zero status.

...So use the command git push --recurse-submodules=on-demand within your parent directory and you will also push all the submodules (i.e. repos) one level down from the parent repo.
