Git generally has many branches. When we clone to the local, it is usually the master branch, so how to switch to other branches? The main commands are as follows:
1. View remote branches
$ git branch -a
I run the above command in the root directory of mxnet:
~/mxnet$ git branch -a
* master
remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
remotes/origin/master
remotes/origin/nnvm
remotes/origin/piiswrong-patch-1
remotes/origin/v0.9rc1
As you can see, we are now under the master branch
2. View local branches
~/mxnet$ git branch
* master
3. Switch branches
$ git checkout -b v0.9rc1 origin/v0.9rc1
Branch v0.9rc1 set up to track remote branch v0.9rc1 from origin. Switched to a new branch 'v0.9rc1' #已经切换到v0.9rc1分支了 $ git branch master * v0.9rc1 #切换回master分支 $ git checkout master Switched to branch 'master' Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
