You cannot create a codespace in an empty repository. If your repository is empty, create a file in the repository before creating a codespace. For more information, see "Adding a file to a repository" and "Adding a file to a repository using the command line."
The environment of the codespace you create will be based on the repository's configuration. For more information, see "Configuring {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} for your project."
