Unable to checkout branches about practice-rebase-off-platform-project HOT 5 OPEN

The following steps worked for me:

From Codecademy's repo page

1. Select fork
2. Uncheck the option to 'copy the main branch only' before creating the fork

From terminal

3. cd into local project path
4. create clone from the forked repo

git clone https://github.com/yourUsername/practice-rebase-off-platform-project.git project_name

5. cd into your cloned repo (you can then use the -a flag optionally to view all branches)

git branch -a

6. checkout the main, part_1_Monday and part_2_Monday branches

git checkout main
git checkout part_1_Monday
git checkout part_2_Monday
git branch

That said, I am not sure if this is the correct approach altogether. Any advice/feedback on this would be much appreciated!

Yup. Same issue. Codecademy did not specify to uncheck the 'copy the main branch only' in the tutorial.
Uncheck it and your good to go.
