how do you create a branch on the original repo?

[ndrean]

Everything is in the title :)
I want to propose a branch for Google One tap.

@ndrean you should have write access to every repo in the dwyl org.
Which means you can create a branch on any repo including this one.
Please confirm you can:

git clone git@github.com:dwyl/elixir-auth-google.git && cd elixir-auth-google
git checkout -b 'one-tap-login-#53'

Make your desired changes ...

git commit -am "add one tap login ref #53"
git push

Thanks. 👌

[ndrean]

Yes, this is ok!

I forked and have a branch in my repo.

....but If I want to make a pull request, there is no other branch than "main" on dwyl/elixir-auth-google

[nelsonic]

@ndrean ic you already have a fork, you could just change/update the Git remote url to the original repo and then push the branch directly. Like I said, you have write access. 👌🏻

[ndrean]

I don't have the option to make a pull request on a branch, even if I created one in my fork. I am searching for how you do this. I don't want to make any mistake on the original repo, it was such a pain the other day to recover.

[ndrean]

ok

git push upstream my-branch

but if I want a reviewer, I need to make a pull request from my fork... humm ok

More readable. Isn't this correct?

[nelsonic]

@ndrean this diagram makes sense. 👌

[ndrean]

Ok thanks for reassuring me. The missing piece is the merge....
