how to switch branches in git command line 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: git change branch

git checkout <<branchName>>

Example 3: git switch branch

git switch branch_name

git checkout branch_name

Example 4: sitch a branch command line

$ git switch <existing_branch>

$ git switch -c <non_existing_branch>
