如何将分支合并到 Github 中的主分支？

Question

I have my code on my local computer. I created a github repository. I wanted to upload my local code to this remote github repository. This is what I did on terminal:

1. I went to the directory of my code from terminal

Then I type:

>git init
>git add .
>git commit -m "First commit"
>git remote add origin https://github.com/usergithub/repository_name.git

Then I went to my github repository and I saw a new branch:

So I click on the green button to make a pull request:

But there is nothing there I can do to merge these 2 branches?

How can I merge the branch to my main project?

I tried different stuff from the terminal:

git push --force origin main

But I get this error message:

error: src refspec main does not match any
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/usergithub/repository_name.git'

I hope the master branch contains all of your pushed changes Steps to merge your branch

1. git checkout main
2. git merge master
3. git push origin main

Now master is merged in main branch and main branch contains all the changes of master branch.

Or you can go to Pull Request tab and click on the Pull request you have created then scroll down you'll able to see the Merge Pull Request Button. On clicking that button it will merge your branch into main branch.
