Cannot add SQL file to Git repository?

Question

I need to add a SQL file to my Git repository. For some reason Tower or Git on the command line does not see that I've added a new file whenever it ends in .sql.

I've tried creating an empty .sql and removed everything in .gitignore, but it still doesn't see it.

Any ideas?

Although this probably shouldn't matter, what OS is this on? — Roman

You probably have a global gitignore set up. This page on GitHub https://help.github.com/articles/ignoring-files recommends that SQL files are included in a global git ignore.

Follow instruction on that page to set your own global rules.
