Git Branch

Create, list, and checkout branches.

git_branch(repo = ".")

git_branch_list(local = NULL, repo = ".")

git_branch_checkout(branch, force = FALSE, repo = ".")

git_branch_create(branch, ref = "HEAD", checkout = TRUE, repo = ".")

git_branch_delete(branch, 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	ignore conflicts and overwrite modified files
ref	string with a branch/tag/commit
checkout	move HEAD to the newly created branch
upstream	remote branch from git_branch_list, for example "origin/master"
