How to add files from a specific directory in git? and then commit it

Question

I have many files in vs code that they are not committed yet I want to add one folder with all files in it is there any way to do it

the is a command git add --all but it adds also all files that I don't want to add just files in the folder that I am in it I want to add and commit.

actually I have many files that I don't want to commit them they are from another project I want to add all files from a folder NOT other files from another folder that are not committed yet. — MaHo

How many projects you have in one repository? If you want to add just one folder to the staging area, you can use git add folder. It will add just that folder and all of its files into the staging area. Then you can commit. — Ali

You can just do git add <folder name> and then any changed files in that folder will be added to git when committed.
