NAME av-branch - Create or rename a branch in the stack SYNOPSIS

av branch [-m | --rename] [--force] [--parent <parent_branch>] <branch-name> [<parent_branch>]

DESCRIPTION Create a new branch that is stacked on the current branch by default If the --rename/-m flag is given, the current branch is renamed to the name instead of creating a new branch. Branches should only be renamed with this command (not with

git branch -m ...

) because av needs to update internal tracking metadata that defines the order of branches within a stack. If you renamed a branch with

git branch -m

, you can retroactively update the internal metadata with

av branch --rename <old-branch-name>:<new-branch-name>

. OPTIONS

--parent <parent_branch>

: Instead of creating a new branch from current branch, create it from specified

<parent_branch>
-m, --rename

: Rename the current branch to the provided

<branch_name>

instead of creating a new one, only if a pull request does not exist.

--force

: Force rename the branch, even if a pull request exists.

--split

: Splits the last commit into a new branch, if no branch name is given create one based on commit message. Previous av-auth-status(1) in CLI Next av-commit-create(1) in CL Last updated 11 months ago Was this helpful?
