Solution 1

This is most likely a bug in Xcode. Please file a bug report with Apple: http://bugreport.apple.com

As a workaround use the "global" commit dialog and select "File View" in the top of the side bar. The relevant files should then show up.

Solution 2

Almost 2 years later, the same functionality exists for Xcode 7.1. The workaround that Matthias offers still allows you to upload assets.xcassets.

Solution 3

Quitting the Xcode & reopening the project again worked!

Solution 4

An alternative could be to try something along the lines of:

cd /to/the/folder/

git ls-files --others --exclude-standard | grep .imageset | xargs git add

git commit...

So I migrated my AppIcons and LaunchImages to Images.xcassets, which is working fine it seems. But I made some modifications to the launch images, and now I went to commit the changes (I'm using a local-only git repo), and it seems Images.xcassets is not allowed to be committed to source control? Right-clicking on it, all the source control options are greyed out. And it doesn't show up in Xcode 5's new "global" commit dialog.

Seems ridiculous not to allow the assets file to be committed, am I missing something?

Great! Didn't know that control was available. Of note, now that I've added the directory and subfiles, right-clicking them in the Project Navigator still doesn't let me select any source control options...but, they do show up properly now in the global commit dialog!

Sorry, no can do. I'm not able to comment or vote yet because I'm a noob so I can only comment on my own posts (or, at least, that's how I understood the instructions).

I thought my response was pretty clear - it has been two years since the original post, the problem still exists, and the workaround still provides relief... unlike your comment "please comment it" which means what? absolutely NOTHING! glass houses... stones...
