How to add hidden files in Git

How do you add hidden files in like .flake8 in git? Git add . does not work and not even adding subdirectories. Gitignore is not the issue. Thanks.

Nothing fancy, just

git add .flake8

PS. git add . also must work. In what way it doesn't work for you?

For individual files

git add .hiddenfile

for file groups

git add .hidden*

and if in a subdirectory,

git add directory

will include the hidden files in that directory.
