VSCode commit/sync to GitHub Pages

The VSCode saved files are only stored on your computer locally until you commit and then sync the changes.

Commit Changes, version control locally

This creates a version of your files in you local git database. Often developers commit several times before they sync in VSCode or push from command line. This allows lots of small changes that can be easily reviewed and rolled back.

  2. Click on the plus sign to stage your changes

  3. Enter a message for your commit in the message box.

  4. Click the “Commit button”

Sync Changes, update change in GitHub

Sync will push files to GitHub and create an Action for GitHub Pages updates, site will update if code is without errors.
