Hi,

In Our git repository there are few branches like

master
orgin/B1
origin/B2

After doing  #git checkout orgin/B1 I found that my current branch is
*(no branch)

#git branch
*(no branch)
master

Why its showing *(no branch) why not origin/B1

How I can checkout orgin/B1 and after that my current branch will be
orgin/B1 not the *(no branch)

Regards,
-SG
