title: GitHub: can't push new project to repo, green button "Compare & pull request" appears
body: <p>When I push from my new Angular project to its new GitHub repo no code files appear in GitHub. Instead I get a yellow message with a green button that says <code>Compare &amp; pull request</code>:</p>

  <p>When I click the green button I see a diff showing changes to files. I don't see a button saying &quot;Approve&quot;. I don't see any buttons to click.</p>
  <p>My <code>.git &gt; config</code> file looks good:</p>
  <pre><code>[core]
      repositoryformatversion = 0
      filemode = true
      bare = false
      logallrefupdates = true
      ignorecase = true
      precomposeunicode = true
  # [remote &quot;MyNewAngularProject&quot;]
  #   url = https://github.com/tdkehoe/MyNewAngularProject
  #   fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/MyNewAngularProject/*
  # [branch &quot;master&quot;]
  #   remote = MyNewAngularProject
  #   merge = refs/heads/master
  [remote &quot;origin&quot;]
      url = https://github.com/tdkehoe/MyNewAngularProject
      fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
  [branch &quot;master&quot;]
      remote = origin
      merge = refs/heads/master
  [branch &quot;cleanup&quot;]
      remote = origin
      merge = refs/heads/cleanup
  [branch &quot;rama&quot;]
      remote = origin
      merge = refs/heads/rama
  </code></pre>
  <p>At the CLI everything looks good:</p>
  <pre><code>$ git remote
  origin
  </code></pre>
  <pre><code>$ git remote -v
  origin  https://github.com/tdkehoe/MyNewAngularProject (fetch)
  origin  https://github.com/tdkehoe/MyNewAngularProject (push)
  </code></pre>
  <p>In GitHub I tried <code>Add file &gt; Upload files</code>, selected a file, and a second later the file was in my repo. Everything is hooked up.</p>
  <p>What I expect to happen when I push is, I first run <code>git status</code>. I see my modified files in red.</p>
  <p>If I want them all I run <code>git add *.*</code>. Or I add the files I want and put the unwanted files into my <code>.gitignore</code> file.</p>
  <p>Then I run <code> git status</code> again and I see the modified files in green.</p>
  <p>Then I run <code>git commit -m 'Fixed a bug that was bugging me'&quot;</code></p>
  <p>Then I run <code>git push origin master</code>.</p>
  <p>Then I see some messages and the files magically appear in my GitHub repo.</p>
