Shopify Github error "Branch isn't a valid name"

I am trying to connect my partner's Shopify account to my github (I am using hydrogen).

I see my branches, but I get a "Branch isn't a valid name" error when I try to connect.

The repository is empty and I am wondering what I'm doing wrong.

Screen capture attached.

shopify -> git connection error screen capture

It could be because:

  • Shopify does access your bananasofa/hydrogen repository
  • but its content does not represent a valid theme

You can see it discussed here, with comments like:

Check if you have your config folder.
If it's missing Shopify will take this as invalid.

At the very least, it needs a config.yml
