Hello, I’m a beginner at github and would like to get started contributing. I learned a bit about how to contribute using visual studio 2017 with the help of the firstcontributions page, but I’m having trouble contributing to other repos. Let’s say I wanted to contribute to a public repo. I first fork it, then open (myusername)/(repo name), I clone it in visual studio, add a new branch with my name. I then added a folder and some files inside it through the solution explorer. Finally, I go to changes, give it a name and commit all and push. After it’s done pushing, I’m supposed to be able to see it on github to make a PR right? But it never shows up. Am I doing something wrong?

Also when I go to changes, it doesn’t show my newly created folder and files under Changes tab. Is that supposed to happen?
