I want to upload a bootstrap folder into bitbucket using sourcetree, but it doesn't recognize my folder when I copy it onto my local repository. I can create simple text files that are noticed, but Sourcetree doesn't respond to the folder.

Is there a file called `.gitignore` in your repository? If yes check if the bootstrap folder is listed in there. Additionally you could post your git status to see what's happening – FreshD Oct 12 '18 at 14:55

Git does not track empty directories. If that is what you were trying to do, consider this question: How can I add an empty directory to a Git repository?

Just create a .gitignore file inside that directory that contains these two lines:
*
!.gitignore
