Add a .gitignore to storage/framework with the following content:

*
!.gitignore

Then commit.

my current .gitignore is like :

/node_modules
/public/hot
/public/storage
/storage/*.key
/vendor
.env
.env.testing
.env.backup
.phpunit.result.cache
Homestead.json
Homestead.yaml
npm-debug.log
yarn-error.log
.idea/
/public/img/avatars
/public/js
/public/css
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode


`

What should I add exactly ?

Not wrong. But also not what I said.

In case Mostafa didn’t know, it’s entire possible and legal to have multiple .gitignore files.

Possible, but from my personal experience it is better to have a single .gitignore file to rule them all 🙂

Please re-read my comment, as I explained exactly what you need to do to fix this.

In case you didn’t know, it’s completely fine to have multiple .gitignore files.
