Merging the changes from my local machine to GitHub

I still have a branch called dev on my local machine that does not show on GitHub.

I can git checkout dev to switch to that branch, but if I try to push, there is no upstream branch to push to. However, I can force this.

Checking on GitHub, my branch is there.

I can see the commits, but earlier I created an initial_pages branch from dev and I did not merge it.

On my local machine, I switch to dev and merge initial_pages.

And I can verify this worked.

Remember to tidy up!

We didn’t sync this branch to GitHub, so that should be all traces gone.
