Ok, think I got it.

When I go back to my last commit from 3 months ago, I see that there is no

$:/GitHub/ <#%24%3A%2FGitHub%2FUsername>Branch

So, I guess what you're saying is that we didn't need $:/GitHub/Branch 
before and therefore I never created it (because the default was good 
enough).

The new question is, can we now save on any branch that we want? Like can I 
have a "test" branch for experiments before moving to main/master ?

Thanks!
