Git for Directors

I started editing a file and forgot to switch branch

git checkout -b forgottoswitch

All modified files are now available in the new branch forgottoswitch

I made changes but want to switch to a branch without committing my changes. Although I might want to go back to changes

git stash

Changes are now available in a stash. Enter git stash help to see extra commands. e.g switch to a branch with the stashed items:

git stash branch actually_do_want_a_new_branch

I made a local branch but I want to have it available on github

git push origin forgottoswitch

After pushing a branch to github don't forget to click on the pull request button in the github webclient
