Double check that you are in your project\u2019s root folder and that it has a <code>.git<\/code> folder associated with it.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To check that you will need to run <code>ls -a<\/code>. This will show you all of the files and folders in your root directory, including those that are hidden.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a <code>.git<\/code> folder in your list, you know that you have initialized a git repository. If there is not a <code>.git<\/code> folder there, run <code>git init<\/code> to initialize your folder as a git repository.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The command <code>git status<\/code> is helpful when we need to know or keep track of changes that have been made to our local repository as they relate to our remote repository.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is super helpful when you are newer to git and are still learning the commands to use it in the terminal as it gives hints on what you need to do to continue to push changes to your remote repository.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have learned the basics of how <code>git status<\/code> works for files tracked by git, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/git-scm.com\/docs\/git-status\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">git-status docs<\/a> to learn more about options you can use along with the <code>git status<\/code> command.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The git status command can be a helpful tool when you need to know what state your local repository is in with respect to the remote repository.\u00a0 Basic Terms Some basic terms to be familiar with as we go forward:&nbsp; Local Repository \u2013 This is your local version of your project on your machine.
