According to docs (http://magit.github.com/magit/magit.html) this could be achieved by typing "b n". When I type "b" I'm getting the actions buffer that looks like this:
Actions
v: Branch manager c: Create r: Rename k: Delete
b: Checkout
Typing "n" doesn't do anything. I'm using magit from master branch (via
el-get). I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong (e.g. some messed up
emacs config) or the docs are outdated.
Cheers,
