It sounds like the branch hasn't been pushed to the remote repository yet. Let's make sure you create and push the branch correctly.

Step-by-Step Instructions to Create and Publish a Branch

1. Create the new branch:

   Ensure you're on the main branch and it's up-to-date:

   git checkout main
   git pull origin main

   Create the new branch for the deployment process:

   git checkout -b feature/deploy-backend-plesk

2. Make your changes:

   Make any necessary changes for the deployment, such as removing the Heroku configurations and adding new Plesk configurations.

3. Commit the changes:

   Add and commit your changes:

   git add .
   git commit -m "chore(deployment): setup deployment for Plesk"

4. Push the branch to the remote repository:

   Publish the new branch to GitHub:

   git push -u origin feature/deploy-backend-plesk

Checking the Branch on GitHub

1. Verify on GitHub:
   • Go to your GitHub repository.
   • Click on the "Branches" tab to ensure the feature/deploy-backend-plesk branch is listed.

Summary

1. Create a new branch:

   git checkout -b feature/deploy-backend-plesk

2. Make your changes and commit them:

   git add .
   git commit -m "chore(deployment): setup deployment for Plesk"

3. Push the branch to GitHub:

   git push -u origin feature/deploy-backend-plesk

Once the branch is pushed and published on GitHub, you can proceed with the pull request and the rest of the deployment steps as outlined previously. If you encounter any issues or need further assistance, please let me know!
