Remember to:

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

I think that you need to commit at least once to the branch before git "saves" it?

#

see if your dev branch is shown when you run git branch. It should display all the branches in the repo

branches are tied to commits – without any commits, a branch is ephemeral

#

TIL branches cannot exist without commits

#

cool
