Subject: git branch --switch?
Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2007 15:36:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4624CD58.90103@gmail.com> (raw)

Good day.

Is it possible to switch the current branch without checking it out? Not 
really essential, but I'm happily flaundering around with git and still 
start from scratch fairly regularly; to speed this up I've found the -n 
switch to git clone useful and would like something similar when 
reconstructing my "branch hierarchies".

Upto now I only know about "git checkout" (with or without -b) to switch the 
current branch. As said it's not really essential, but I was expecting there 
would be something like a "branch --switch". Did I overlook it?

Rene.
