Why doesn't the vendor folder show in Bitbucket?

Question

I have a Laravel project. I'm using Git to upload projects into Bitbucket but the vendor folder is not shown. Why not?

All files have been uploaded except the vendor folder.

Answer 1

if you want to show your vendor folder remove it from .gitignore but it is not recommended.

then run git add . and commit your change push it to bitbucket.

Answer 2

Because .gitignore file in the root directory of Laravel project has this line:

/vendor

Git doesn't add this directory to the repository. You shouldn't commit this folder. Each member of your team should run composer install command after checkout to download all dependencies to the vendor directory on their machine.
