Pushed to Github Repository, not showing up

[MrinmoyBhaumik]

Repositories not showing Code after push

Question

Body

Hi,
I created a new master branch in my local and tried to push it to a new repository on github. For some reason I don't see the changes on github. It seems as if the push occured because when I put the command in again, it says everything is up to date. Not sure why I don't see any of the code in repository.

Are you looking at the same branch when looking at GitHub? If you create a new repository and have it initialized with a README or license, the default branch will be called main.

What was the command used to push?

Was it?

git push origin <NEW_BRANCH>

Sorry, I just saw you guys reply. I did git push origin master. I seem to be able to commit and push changes but it never seems to show up in the repo. When I go to the repo after I push a change, I see a notification that says "master has recent push changes" and I get the option to compare and pull request. When I click on that, it shows the actual files that were changed/added but that's it. I don't see anything else in the repo except the readme. Sorry I haven't really used Git that much and in a while, not sure why this is happening.

The default branch on GitHub is now called main, not master. You likely created a new branch called master (looking at your repo MrinmoyBhaumik/ExercismPractice, I can see you've done just that) and are thus committing to that branch. You can create a pull request to merge that branch into main.

Note: older repos may still have the default branch as master, but main is generally used on new repos.

Hope this helps!

Sorry I've been a bit busy and missed your reply. I appreciate the help. I saw what you said but when I do a pull request I get this message and I'm not sure what to do from here [image: image.png] How do I go about merging the branches?

You haven't actually attached an image of your error. 😅
If you could edit the message or send a new one with the image, I'll do my best to help you out.

Pushing to the remote repo should make the contents appear on GitHub! You may want to double-check that your remote upstream/origin URL is actually pointing at the correct repo.
