How to remove local directory from git?

To remove a local directory from Git, you can use the following steps:

1. Go to the root directory of your Git repository where the directory you want to remove is located.
2. Use the following command to remove the directory from the Git repository, but keep it in your local file system:

1

git rm --cached <directory_name>

Replace <directory_name> with the name of the directory you want to remove.

1. Commit the changes by running the following command:

1

git commit -m "Removed <directory_name> from Git repository"

1. Push the changes to the remote repository (if you want to remove the directory from the remote as well):

1

git push

After following these steps, the local directory will be removed from the Git repository, but it will still exist in your local file system.
