create branch from a commit code example
Example 1: git create branch with specific commit
# Create a new branch from previous commit's hash
git branch develop 04c900c
# Push the new branch to remote repository
git push --set-upstream origin develop
# Checkout the new branch
git checkout develop
Example 2: commit to a new branch
git checkout -b your-new-branch
git add <files>
git commit -m <message>
First, checkout your new branch.
Then add all the files you want to commit to staging.
Lastly, commit all the files you just added.
You might want to do a git push origin your-new-branch afterward so your changes show up on the remote.
Example 3: git branch from commit
You can create the branch via a hash:
git branch branchname <sha1-of-commit>
Or by using a symbolic reference:
git branch branchname HEAD~3
To checkout the branch when creating it, use
git checkout -b branchname <sha1-of-commit or HEAD~3>
