moving committed (but not pushed) changes to a new branch after pull

Question

I\'ve done a fair bit of work (\"Your branch is ahead of \'origin/master\' by 37 commits.\") which really should have gone into its own branch rather than into master<

Answer 1

1. Checkout fresh copy of you sources

   git clone ........

2. Make branch from desired position

   git checkout {position} git checkout -b {branch-name}

3. Add remote repository

   git remote add shared ../{original sources location}.git

4. Get remote sources

   git fetch shared

5. Checkout desired branch

   git checkout {branch-name}

6. Merge sources

   git merge shared/{original branch from shared repository}
