TortoiseGit doesn't add files automatically

When I create a new file in a git tracked folder and click commit it doesn't show for commit. If I want to show it, I need to right click, then click Add ... then to commit it. Other users can commit without the Add step. I am master of the project in GitLab.

Other problem is when I want to push every time TortoiseGit requires me to re-enter username and password, but when someone else (my friend) try to do that, it doesn't request his.

Is Git required for TortoiseGit?

As a command-line git client is required for using TortoiseGit, you have to install both. The recommended order is to install TortoiseGit first. Just download the setup package for your system and install it.

How do I commit in TortoiseGit?

Select any file and/or folders you want to commit, then TortoiseGit → Commit.... The commit dialog will show you every changed file, including added, deleted and unversioned files. If you don't want a changed file to be committed, just uncheck that file.

Where are TortoiseGit settings stored?

The settings appear to all be stored in the Registry rather than file configs. If you look under Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TortoiseGit you will find a number of ContextMenuEntries keys which I believe control the context menu settings.

Make sure the Show Unversioned Files is checked. See:

For your second problem, go Settings/Git/Credential and try to use manager helper. Also see A: TortoiseGit save user authentication / credentials
