I just recently discovered how to make git aliases, which are great, but I was wondering if there is a way to include my common branch prefix with the alias. So what I would like is something like:
Alias in .gitconfig:
[alias]
br = checkout -b branchfolder/
and then beeing able to use the command like
$ git br newbranch
to call
git checkout -b branchfolder/newbranch
This, of course, is not what happens, as the command translates to
git checkout -b branchfolder/ newbranch
and I get an error where git asking:
fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'branchfolder/' at the same time. Did you intend to checkout 'newbranch' which can not be resolved as commit?
How would I achieve what I want?
