+Now we know that Git only tracks files, so we know we need to add something to the folder.
+
+You can add anything. You just need to add a really simple dummy file to make sure that the folder is tracked, and will be pushed.
+
+You could copy and paste a text file file.txt with nothing in it, and that would work. You could put a PNG image of a cat.
+
+A common, standardised practice to solve this exact issue, however, is to push a file called .gitkeep into your empty folders.
+
+This isn't a feature of Git! So you could name it anything. There's nothing special about the name .gitkeep – some developers add .gitignore instead, for example.
+
+.gitignore is a little confusing, though, as you are trying to make git not ignore your file, and actually push it into your branch.
+
+Either way, by adding this simple file to your folders, they'll get pushed when the time comes.
+
+.gitkeep is a common thing you will see in codebases, where an empty folder needs to be tracked via Git.
+
+The name of the dummy file may not always be .gitkeep but you'll see the actual practice over and over again as a developer.

+I tweet my articles here if you would like to read more of my writing.
