title: Pushing git changes from parent directory?
body: <p>I had a quick question on git. Say I create a git remote in the folder <code>dist</code>, which has a parent directory of <code>app</code> (i.e. the path of <code>dist</code> is <code>app\dist</code>). If there are any changes in the files of the <code>app</code> directory, will the git remote recognize these changes? </p>
  
  <p>And if not, how would I ensure that the git remote does recognize changes from a parent directory? </p>
