git branch [options]
Create, list or delete branches. WIth branch_name create this branch. Full optoins list is here.
Create branch branch_name
git branch <branch_name>
Alternate ways:
Fast creation and checkout

New (from Git 2.23)
Now, from Git version 2.23, we have a new command for branch changing and creating.
Changing branch to some_branch:
git switch <some_branch>
Creating and changing to new_branch:
git switch -c <new_branch>
Switch to a branch branch_name and update the working directory
git checkout <branch_name>
Or create a new branch branch_name and switch to it.
git checkout -b <branch_name>
You or somebody else made work on some part of project and now it's need to add this part in our project. For this you have to use something like this (merge added_branch to current:
git merge <added_branch>
Sometimes merging has problems.
