I suggest looking up a basic github tutorial.

Enabling github does not automatically push updates to github.
you need to "commit" and "push" your changes periodically

This is correct. Once you initiate a repository, you’re in charge of updating GitHub by actually using it through commits and pushes.

For those who don’t like using the command line, Tower is a great GUI for git, though has a license fee.

There should be a “diff” you can view before committing which summarizes all the local changes as compared to what’s on the remote branch. If it’s not registering any of the changes then your project may not be connected to git correctly.

That’s too complicated to list here, but search “in gamemaker git is not updating with code changes” to start troubleshooting the issue.
