can i work on it

@Horusateel you need to push.

Have you done git push -u origin add-alonzo-church ?

@williamalvarezdev
Oh, yes I did. Here's an exact list of the last four commands before I stumbled upon this issue:

• git switch -c add-alonzo-church
• git add Contributors.md
• git commit -m "Add alonzo church to Contributors list"
• git push -u origin add-alonzo-church

On the contrary, Here's a list of the last four commands before it actually worked and the button indeed appeared for me to complete the guide:

• git switch -c Horusateel-Horusateel
• git add Contributors.md
• git commit -m "Add Horusateel Horusateel to Contributors list"
• git push -u origin Horusateel-Horusateel

PS: I was testing whether it has something to do with the nature of the commit, since I didn't include a github account link in the alonzo-church trial, but I didn't include a link in the Horusateel-Horusateel trial neither and it worked just fine.

Maybe you are missing the .git file. Maybe a simple, delete the file and clone it again might work. The commands you wrote there seems fine.

@williamalvarezdev

Just tried this out, and the same issue persisted. Don't know how to test whether the .git file exists or not though, how can I test that?

Do you get any error messages?

@williamalvarezdev
No, not at all. Only issue as I described is the button doesn't appear, so I try another username and link and then it worked just fine.
If I may ask, how do professional git users compare and merge? I can imagine this feature of the button appearing automatically is quite new and precarious and more GUI related, there has to be some manual and sure way to compare and merge. I'd very much like to try this method to test it.

I use visual studio code. They have a feature where you can compare. Otherwise some plugins with vim also works ok

Have you tried doing git push -u origin add-alonzo-church ?
