* Sorry, my question was wrong. Let's say

    day-0:
      - Fork is created
    day-1:
      - upstream commits pulled into 'main' branch
      - new files are committed into 'main' branch
    day-2:
      - upstream commits pulled into 'main' branch 
      - 'new-branch-1' created from 'main' branch
    day-3:
      - upstream commits pulled into 'main' branch
      - 'new-branch-2' created from 'main' branch
    ...
    day-n
      - upstream commits pulled into 'main' branch
      - 'new-branch-n' created from 'main' branch

* Generally committed local changes are visible across _new_ branches created from the local branch, right? ie. 'new-branch-1', 'new-branch-2', 'new-branch-n' all created from the 'main' branch, should have the files which were committed into 'main' branch on day-1, right? That is not happening.


Thank you.
