You can do this locally as everyone mentioned using
git checkout -b
Alternatively, you can do this in github itself, follow the steps:
1- In the repository, click on the Commits.

3- Click on the tree: xxxxxx in the upper left. Just type in a new branch name there click Create branch xxx as shown below.
Now you can fetch the changes from that branch locally and continue from there.
