Describe your question
I have a personal repo and I want deploy this site. But I can't due to The requested URL returned error: 403 error. Why it happens? What am I missing to successfully deploy my site? As I understand:
- site is being built to
publicfolder - this folder contents is pushed to
gh-pages gh-pagesis used to deploy site
Is it right? Why there is no gh-pages branch created after any new commit?

Issue is solved but my site is still inaccessible. 🤔
We need to select the branch to deploy in the Pages tab of the repository settings.
Your GitHub Pages site is currently being built from the master branch is confusing description because when I hear built I think about just building site via some static site generator. Thanks! Everything works now. ❤️
