I created a new branch through GitHub but it is not visible from the Retool editor when I try to switch to it

Hello!

Thanks for flagging this. What exactly are you looking to achieve here and why are you leading by creating the branch on Github?

We give the option to reset a branch to any given branch on your source control provider. You could use this to move a branch created from Retool into one created on Github?

Thank you!

Have you had a chance to revisit this, @jaimestogithub? By default, branches created in the remote are not automatically synced to the local repository. You can point a local branch to an existing remote branch, however, as @Ollie_Clyde explains above.
