Git Branches

Branching

Working with branches allows you to diverge from the master branch of development.

Working on a branch separate from the master branch provides many benefits. One of which is to create, read, update, and delete content without breaking anything on the master branch.

In the Git Branches walkthrough you will be doing the following:

Creating new branches with git branch
Changing branches with git checkout
Fixing existing bugs
- staging changes with git add and git commit
Pushing changes to remote repositories with git push
