git how to switch branch code example

Example 1: how to swap branch git

[git checkout "branch_name"]

is another way to say:

[git checkout -b branch_name origin/branch_name]

in case "branch_name" exists only remotely.

[git checkout -b branch_name origin/branch_name] is useful in case you have multiple remotes.

Regarding [git checkout origin 'another_branch'] I'm not sure this is possible, AFAK you can do this using "fetch" command -- [git fetch origin 'another_branch']

Example 2: canging branch in git

$ git checkout 

$ git checkout -b 

Example 3: how to switch another branch in git

git checkout 'another_branch'

Example 4: git switch branch

git switch 

git checkout 

Example 5: git change branch

git checkout <>

Example 6: git switch branch

git switch branch_name

git checkout branch_name
