Hi there,

So I'm following thiese instructions:http://mark-kirby.co.uk/tag/osx/ and so far i've cloned the project I want to work on and created a branch.

Now I wish to add files that exist in another folder on my machine... but I keep getting the following:

fatal: pathspec 'Users/mic/OnePageCRMVC/MKTsite25-05/index.html' did not match any files

However, the file definitely does exist... Am I trying to do something that is not allowed and the error message is throwing me off?

Regards, Fiona
