Create, list, and checkout branches.
Usage
git_branch(repo = ".")
git_branch_list(local = NULL, repo = ".")
git_branch_checkout(branch, force = FALSE, orphan = FALSE, repo = ".")
git_branch_create(
branch,
ref = "HEAD",
checkout = TRUE,
force = FALSE,
repo = "."
)
git_branch_delete(branch, repo = ".")
git_branch_move(branch, new_branch, force = FALSE, repo = ".")
git_branch_fast_forward(ref, repo = ".")
git_branch_set_upstream(upstream, branch = git_branch(repo), repo = ".")
git_branch_exists(branch, local = TRUE, repo = ".")Arguments
- repo
The path to the git repository. If the directory is not a repository, parent directories are considered (see git_find). To disable this search, provide the filepath protected with
I(). When using this parameter, always explicitly call by name (i.e.repo =) because future versions of gert may have additional parameters.- local
set TRUE to only check for local branches, FALSE to check for remote branches. Use NULL to return all branches.
- branch
name of branch to check out
- force
overwrite existing branch
- orphan
if branch does not exist, checkout unborn branch
- ref
string with a branch/tag/commit
- checkout
move HEAD to the newly created branch
- new_branch
target name of the branch once the move is performed; this name is validated for consistency.
- upstream
remote branch from git_branch_list, for example
"origin/master"
