Creating & committing folders in a GH Branch in terminal
I need a little clarification on how this works.
I know that, with files, if I'm in a certain branch, say
main, and I create a new file there (say, myFile.html). If that file is unique to main (the filename does not exist in any other branches), then if I fail to commit that newly created unique file, and then switch to another branch (say, Branch-1), that Git's 'Uncommitted Changes Carryover' will be triggered, and I'll be allowed to switch to Branch-1 , but in Branch-1, I will see a temporary copy of the uncommitted myFile.html inside the Branch-1 directory.
It's only once I finally commit myFile.html to a particular branch, that I will no longer see temporary copies of it ("carried over") into other Branch directories. After committing, it will only be visible in the directory associated with the Branch it was committed to. ...
My .gitignore getting ignored when I try to perform git push

Github trials and tribulations: Accessing non-'main' branches of a pulled repo locally
I initialized a local github repository and then performed a 'git pull' of an existing online repository, so that its files were brought into my local repository folder.
The online repository that I pulled from has multiple branches. However, when I run
git branch -a from my local repository, I only see the main branch listed.
I need to ultimately move over into one of the pulled repository's other branches, the Features branch, and commit and push my work to that branch, NOT main. Although like I said, I currently don't even see the Features branch as available....
