What are they looking for with this question "Add the README.md file to be tracked by Git."

I have tried to figure out what they are looking for. I reviewed the video but still haven't figured it out. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I would guess in the command line you need to do

git add .

Thank you. I also had a hard time with this question especially because I was repeatedly getting a hint to use the status subcommand.

Answer: git add .

( you must include a space, followed by a period )
