I’ve just set up CircleCI, and I’m only getting builds when I merge to master, not when I push to other branches. I don’t have a circle.yaml config file, so I expect the default behaviour to be as described in the [docs](https://circleci.com/docs/configuration#branches). I’m not seeing the webhook in `https://github.com/$ORG/$REPO/settings/hooks` as suggested by this [thread](https://discuss.circleci.com/t/pushing-branch-to-origin-master-doesnt-trigger-ci-build/494/4). Unfollowing/refollowing the repo doens’t populate the webhook. Adding the CircleCI webhook manually from Github doesn’t work either. Of note is that this repo is a fork of another private repo, from an org that I control. That repo is building correctly on branches, but I want to be able to test my personal branches before opening PRs to the main project. Am I missing something obvious, or is this behaviour bugged? ---

After adding a circle.yml file to set the python version to 3, the fork has started building again. ---
