Multiple Repos Confused on how to update site

I think I had some recursive repos in my site because of a theme
so on my github I have one folder that is mywebsite.github.io

this seems to have a bunch of autogenerated stuff like

about-hugo
about-us
dist
fonts
lib
privacy_policy
tags
updates
writing
404.html

and I have another repo which seems to have the content like archetypes
content
public @
themes
config.toml

I’m not certain where I go to actually update the site?

GitHub does versioning for the HTML produced by Hugo. It’s why you have a branch with the artifacts (HTML/CSS files) produced by Hugo. I think you must deal with the source (content, themes, config.toml). If you want some help, please share your repo(s). And perhaps it’s a good idea to read the documentation to understand how Hugo works.
