Creating branches

Some basic git commands to create and work with branches:

Check in your local repository which branch you are in:

%git branch
* master

Check the branches of your project in the remote repository:

%git branch -r
  origin/HEAD
  origin/master

Create a new branch called test:

%git checkout -b test
Switched to a new branch "test"
%git branch  
  master
* test

Work on files in that branch:

%vi test.txt

Verify the status of files you modified in that branch:

%git status
 # On branch test
 # Untracked files:
 #   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
 #
 #       test.txt
 nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

Add the file(s) edited to the git stage area:

%git add test.txt
%git status
 # On branch test
 # Changes to be committed:
 #   (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
 #
 #       new file:   test.txt
 #

Commit your changes to your local repository:

%git commit -m "test file only"
