I want to create a branch using Probot. Seeing that it uses octokit/rest.js, I went over the octokit docs but couldn't find a method to do so. So how do I create a branch?

Also note that I mean to create a branch so I can pull request later.

Edit: This seems to be the way to do it, but it's confusing.

Yes @Siddharth,

The way to do it is as you pointed. I found this good explanation in StackOverflow: Github API - create branch?

Also, using Octokit SDK, you can easily achieve it like this:

octokit.rest.git.createRef({
  owner,
  repo,
  ref,
  sha,
});

docs here: https://octokit.github.io/rest.js/v18#git-create-ref
