What article on docs.github.com is affected?
Creating a branch via the branches overview
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
The current instructions say:
Under "Branch name", type a name for the branch.
Under "Branch source", choose the repository and branch to base your new branch on.
Click Create branch.
In the current GitHub interface, the field is labeled "New branch name", the branch selector is labeled "Source", and there is no separate option to choose a repository in this dialog.
A clearer version of these steps would be:
- Under "New branch name", type a name for the branch.
- Under "Source", choose the branch to base your new branch on.
- Click Create new branch.
Additional information
The current UI does not display a separate repository selector. The repository is already determined by the repository where the user is creating the branch.
