Here are the steps provided by DevOps for GitHub create folder:-

Navigate to the local repository First, you would need to navigate to the local repository by using the terminal prompt. You can also navigate by using the command prompt al

Use the following command

    # Create a new directory (folder)

Mkdir folder_name

    # Add a new file inside the folder (optional)

Touch folder_name/new_file.txt

    # Add changes to the staging area

Git add.

    # Commit changes with a message
    Git commit -m “Added a new folder and file”
    # Push changes to the remote repository

Git push origin branch_name

You can replace the “folder_name” with your desired name. You can also replace “new_file_txt” with the desired name of the file that you want to add to the folder. Moreover, do not forget to replace the “branch_name” with the particular branch on which you are working on the repository.
