So you're explicitly pushing "master". Is that the branch you have checked out? What does "git branch" or "git status" show? If you have some other branch checked out but you push "master", then your changes won't be visible. Your example steps don't actually show anything related to making changes. They show your remotes (excessive, but functional) and they show a successful push. They don't show you modifying any files or committing any files. Perhaps you can provide some more details? Everything you've shown so far looks fine. Best regards, Bryan Turner
