title: Create two branches under a new project on VSTS
body: <p>I have a brand new project on VSTS which is still empty. I haven't checked in anything yet.</p>
  
  <p>I want to create two branches i.e. <strong>Develop</strong> and <strong>Production</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>How do I do this? I see no options to create branches neither on the portal nor within Visual Studio 2017.</p>
  
  <p>The idea is that I check my project on my local machine into the "Develop" branch and not into the root of the project repository on VSTS.</p>
  
  <p>BTW, I'll be using TFVC for the project.</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE:
  Inside Visual Studio, I connected to the project repo on VSTS using Source Control Explorer. I then right clicked the empty repo and clicked to create a new branch but here's the error I got:
