41 .SH "DESCRIPTION"
42 .sp
43 Creates a new branch\&. By default the new branch will track the configured upst ream for the repo (defaults to \fIorigin/master\fR)\&. If one of the other optio ns is specified, it will track that other ref instead\&.
44 .sp
45 Conceptually, each branch in your repo represents one \fIChange List (CL)\fR\&. If you have many independent CLs (i\&.e\&. the changes in one do not interact wi th/depend on the changes in another), then you should create them as new branche s tracking the default upstream (i\&.e\&. git new\-branch <branch_name>)\&. If y ou have features which depend on each other, you should create stacked branches using git new\-branch \-\-upstream_current <branch_name>\&.
46 .SH "OPTIONS"
