What this icon mean?

Hello,

I have made a git push origin master and I don’t understand why I have this following icon on gitlab, first time seeing it :

When clicking on it, I can’t access what’s inside.

It’s a git submodule. It means you are linking that directory to another repository. Probably you don’t have access to the other repository, or the reference is wrong.

Is there a way to delete the linking and commit files into that directory ?
