Answer 1

you also can just like this

git.checkout().setName(remoteBranch).setForce(true).call();
                logger.info("Checkout to remote branch:" + remoteBranch);
                git.branchCreate() 
                   .setName(branchName)
                   .setUpstreamMode(SetupUpstreamMode.SET_UPSTREAM)
                   .setStartPoint(remoteBranch)
                   .setForce(true)
                   .call(); 
                logger.info("create new locale branch:" + branchName + "set_upstream with:" + remoteBranch);
                git.checkout().setName(branchName).setForce(true).call();
                logger.info("Checkout to locale branch:" + branchName);
