I know this is probably a FAQ and I thought I found it somewhere once,
but... How do I commit changes from in my working directory to another
(possibly non-existent) branch?
All too often I am working on changes and realize I am sitting on
master
or a topic branch and I need to commit my mods to different branch. I
really don't like:
git commit
git branch <other-branch>
git reset --hard HEAD^
Is there anything like:
git commit -b <other-branch> [<file>...]?
If not, would patches to implement such a change be accepted?
You can do this simply by doing the following:
git checkout -b <other-branch>
git commit
The changes in your working tree will be carried over to <other-
branch> when you do the git-checkout command.
