Handy Bash Function for Creating Branches

[Steven Silvester]

Hi all,

I added the following to my .bashrc for creating new branches:

function gn() {
    git checkout -b "$1" upstream/master
}

I use it as follows:

$ gn temp2
Branch temp2 set up to track remote branch master from upstream.
Switched to a new branch 'temp2'

This saves me from forgetting to branch against upstream master all the 
time.

Regards, 

Steve
