Speed up your Git workflow! 🚀 In this tutorial, **Beshilo Coding Academy** shows you the professional way to handle branches.
Instead of the slow process of creating a branch and then switching to it manually, we reveal the “Shortcut Command” that does both instantly. This small change will save you time every single day you’re coding.
**What You’ll Master:**
✅ **Verification Basics:** Using `git log –oneline` and `git branch` to check your status.
✅ **The Standard Way:** Creating a branch with `git branch` and switching with `git switch`.
✅ **The Pro Shortcut:** Using `git switch -c [name]` to create and enter a new branch at the same time.
