  • The only explanation which comes to mind is that these files are not present in the remote branch, possibly because someone (you?) deleted them. – Tim Biegeleisen Dec 20 '16 at 08:53

    Is mixpanel a submodule? – 1615903 Dec 20 '16 at 08:54
  • @1615903 Good catch, I didn't think of this. – Tim Biegeleisen Dec 20 '16 at 08:55
  • There are no .git folder on mixpanl folder, so it not a submodule for sure I dont have .gitignore also – Vo Kim Nguyen Dec 20 '16 at 08:59
  • Already a while ago Git changed the way submodules are organized. They are not nested Git repos with a separate `.git` directory anymore, but organized via a root-level [.gitmodules file](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitmodules). – sschuberth Dec 20 '16 at 09:26
  • Resolved. I think it just cache issue of git. I remove the mixpanel folder first git rm --cache Framework/mixpanel, then I add it again, git add Framework/mixpanel, now all files already on git repo – Vo Kim Nguyen Dec 20 '16 at 09:39

The mixpanel directory seems to be a git submodule, i.e. a directory that refers to another Git repository.

The easiest way to clone such repositories is to pass --recursive to git clone. If you have already cloned the repository, you can fetch the contents of the submodule with git submodule update --init --recursive.

Also see the answer to "How to git clone including submodules?".
