How to upload only the necessary folders/files to GIT?

Question

git

there is a tree of files:

• folder1
  
• folder2
  

Is there a way to check out only folder 1 to the "Free" branch, and folder 2 to the "Paid" branch (possibly via the .gitignore setting)? There are a lot of files and folders, it's unrealistic with your hands ...

Answer 1
