magit

Magit what's the equivalent for `git checkout -b` command?


What I'm trying to do:

I'm in develop branch and would like to create a new feature branch. In command line I usually just run git checkout -b new-feature-name.

How can I do it using Magit shortcuts?

Checkout branch/new branch/new spin-off/new spin-out just seems a bit confusing. Not sure which one to choose for the task:

magit checkout


Solution

  • I've tried one by one until I found what I was looking for:

    s new spin-off

    How to verify it: (magit-process-buffer) and notice something like the following line at the bottom:

    git ... checkout -b new-feature-name develop
