Create a new branch on git locally
To create a new branch on Git locally, you can use the following command:
git branch <branch-name>
Replace <branch-name>
with the name you want to give your new branch.
For example, to create a new branch called "feature/new-login-system", you would run:
git branch feature/new-login-system
This will create a new branch with the specified name, but it won't switch you to that branch. To switch to the new branch, you can use:
git checkout <branch-name>
So, to switch to the "feature/new-login-system" branch, you would run:
git checkout feature/new-login-system
If you want to create a new branch and switch to it in one step, you can use:
git checkout -b <branch-name>
This will create a new branch with the specified name and switch you to that branch.
For example, to create a new branch called "feature/new-login-system" and switch to it, you would run:
git checkout -b feature/new-login-system
Note: If you're working on a remote repository, you'll need to push your new branch to the remote repository for others to see it. You can do this with:
git push origin <branch-name>
Replace <branch-name>
with the name of your new branch.
