I tried to go back to a previous commit and start my project over, but I was always running into errors and it has been a whole day of mispent time.
Backstory here: Trying to go back to previous commits in Github while accidently uploading another repository
So I finally decided to grab the most recent file and download the zip files. After doing that, I deleted the repository and created a new one and uploaded the files. When I attempt to do so I run git status and I get this output. I have attempted to do command shift p . to see the hidden files but I have been unable to do so. When I type in git add . I git this monster list of outputs. Is there a way to unstage them all at once or do I have to go in line by line? How did these ../ entries get there?
I was running git add . but that was from my project folder. How did these other files get into the staging area? I have run git reset and I have NOT made any commits to the github repository yet.

What did I try and what am I expecting?
I want to be able to add files wihtout the ../.
I want to be able to start a new repository.
What have I done to solve the problem?
I have checked Codecademy material to see if they teach it.
I asked a question in the Github forums.
I checked the github documentation for commands to run.
