I have a web application project made in Visual Studio 2008.
Well, I added a jquery
folder and added it to source control and other such things. I forgot to add it to the visual studio project though. How do I add the existing folder now? I've tried just creating a new folder and naming it jquery
but it gave me a cryptic error "the directory is already on the disk ... if you want to see this directory then check the Show All Files option in the project file" Yet I looked and saw no such option.
Is the only way around this to rename jquery
to jquery2
and then create a new folder via visual studio named jquery
and copy all my files into it?
