How do i create one with my name on it?
remotes/origin/my_name when i do this:
$ git branch -a * master remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master remotes/origin/master remotes/origin/my_colleague And how do i use that? git checkout?
i only know git pull commit push.. and it's my first time to use branches or remote branches
i tried git remote add my_name git@my_url, but it doesnt look the same..
thanks in advance
Your git branch -a told me that you have two remote branches origin/master and origin/my_colleague (origin/HEAD really does not count). To checkout a local branch of origin/my_colleague you can git checkout -b my_colleague origin/my_colleague. This creates a new local branch, based on the origin/my_colleague remote, and checks it out. To go back to master (I know you are currently on master because of the *), you can git checkout master.
