    If the “changes” are all your files, discarding them for me means basically delete my files, you know, the ones you are trying to add.

      At the same time, OP seems a layman, and might be coming from things like Microsoft Word, where “Discard all changes” basically means “revert to last save”.

      EDIT: After reading the related issues, OP may have also thought that “discard changes” was to uninitialise the repository, as opposed to wiping untracked files.
