Create

Branches can be created from multiple contexts within JadeGit.

You can initiate branch creation from:

• The New Branch option in the JadeGit Changes repository menu (based on the current branch).

  

• The New Local Branch option in the context menu for a selected branch (via Manage Branches).

• The New Branch option in the context menu for a selected commit (in any history view).

  

Setup Branch

After selecting any of the branch creation options, the Setup Branch dialog is shown.

The Create branch from field shows the branch or commit the new branch will be based on. You can also enter a commit ID manually to create a branch from any commit without locating it in history.

The Checkout (load & set) option is selected by default to switch to the new branch immediately. The Track remote (configure for push & pull) option is selected by default when the branch is based on a remote branch, and disabled otherwise.
