Putting uncommitted changes at Master to a new branch by Git

How can you put uncommitted changes to a branch TEST when I am at the branch master?

Solution

  • You can just checkout to the test branch and then commit. You don't lose your uncommited changes when moving to another branch.

    Supposing you are at the master branch:

    git checkout test
git add .
git add deletedFile1
git add deletedFile2
...
git commit -m "My Custom Message"

    I am not really sure about the deleted files, but I guess they aren't included when you use git add .
