Revision 91dcdfd3b5331d955cfb60edf8930f1b5c142905 authored by Linus Torvalds on 12 July 2005, 03:44:20 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 12 July 2005, 03:44:20 UTC
In particular, if we check out something that isn't an old branch, it now requires a new branch-name to check the thing out into. So, for example: git checkout -b my-branch v2.6.12 will create the new branch "my-branch", and start it at v2.6.12, while git checkout master will just switch back to the master branch. Of course, if you want to create a new branch "my-branch" and _not_ check it out, you could have done so with just git-rev-parse v2.6.12^0 > .git/refs/heads/my-branch which I think I will codify as "git branch".
