STG-BRANCH(1) StGit Manual STG-BRANCH(1)NAME
stg-branch - Branch operations: switch, list, create, rename, delete, ...
SYNOPSIS
stg branch
stg branch <branch>
stg branch --list
stg branch --create <new-branch> [<committish>]
stg branch --clone [<new-branch>]
stg branch --rename <old-name> <new-name>
stg branch --protect [<branch>]
stg branch --unprotect [<branch>]
stg branch --delete [--force] <branch>
stg branch --description=<description> [<branch>]
DESCRIPTION
Create, clone, switch between, rename, or delete development branches within a git repository.
stg branch
Display the name of the current branch.
stg branch <branch>
Switch to the given branch.
OPTIONS -l, --list
List each branch in the current repository, followed by its branch description (if any). The current branch is prefixed with >.
Branches that have been initialized for StGit (with linkstg:init[]) are prefixed with s. Protected branches are prefixed with p.
-c, --create
Create (and switch to) a new branch. The new branch is already initialized as an StGit patch stack, so you do not have to run
linkstg:init[] manually. If you give a committish argument, the new branch is based there; otherwise, it is based at the current HEAD.
StGit will try to detect the branch off of which the new branch is forked, as well as the remote repository from which that parent
branch is taken (if any), so that running linkstg:pull[] will automatically pull new commits from the correct branch. It will warn if
it cannot guess the parent branch (e.g. if you do not specify a branch name as committish).
--clone
Clone the current branch, under the name <new-branch> if specified, or using the current branch's name plus a timestamp.
The description of the new branch is set to tell it is a clone of the current branch. The parent information of the new branch is
copied from the current branch.
-r, --rename
Rename an existing branch.
-p, --protect
Prevent StGit from modifying a branch -- either the current one, or one named on the command line.
-u, --unprotect
Allow StGit to modify a branch -- either the current one, or one named on the command line. This undoes the effect of an earlier stg
branch --protect command.
--delete
Delete the named branch. If there are any patches left in the branch, StGit will refuse to delete it unless you give the --force flag.
A protected branch cannot be deleted; it must be unprotected first (see --unprotect above).
If you delete the current branch, you are switched to the "master" branch, if it exists.
-d DESCRIPTION, --description DESCRIPTION
Set the branch description.
--force
Force a delete when the series is not empty.
