Answer 1

I have used two ways to create branch

If you are using TortoiseGit follow these steps:-

1.Create Branch using TortoiseGit

Right click on your project >>> TortoiseGit >>> Create Branch >>> write the name of branch and select the base branch then press ok

2.Push the branch

Right click on your project >>> TortoiseGit >>> push >>> click ok

3.Switch to new branch

Right click on your project >>> TortoiseGit >>> Switch/Checkout >>> select newly created branch and press ok

If you are using command prompt follow these steps:-

1.Create branch using command prompt

$git checkout -b new_branch_name

2.Push the branch

$git push origin new_branch_name

3.Switch to new branch it will already switched to new_branch_name otherwise you can use

$git checkout new_branch_name
