Create and Switches Branch – React Bangla Tutorial

To create and switch branches in Git using the command line, follow these steps:

Before creating a new branch, check which branch you're currently on:

git branch

Use the following command to create a new branch:

git branch branch_name

For example, to create a branch named feature:

git branch feature

To switch (checkout) to the newly created branch:

git checkout feature

Or you can create and switch to the new branch in a single command:

git checkout -b feature

Check the active branch again:

git branch

The active branch will be highlighted with *.

To switch between branches:

git checkout branch_name

For example, switching back to main:

git checkout main

To list all branches:

git branch

If you want to push the new branch to GitHub:

git push -u origin feature

Now, you can work on your new branch and commit changes separately. 🚀
