Kind of. It can be done with git-read-tree. I.e.: $ git-read-tree --index-output=.git/tmp-index <branch-name> && \ mv tmp-index .git/index && \ git update-ref HEAD <branch-name>
This does not appear to do what you think it will. git update-ref will write the SHA1 of <branch-name> into the current HEAD, not switch HEAD to a new branch.
However, the first two lines will correctly update the index to the new head which is probably a good idea.
