I was just trying to see if there was any way to automate the process, because I still haven't mastered git. But the command you told me already helped me a lot and saved me a lot of unnecessary work, since I wanted to just switch between versions of a project that was in production server. No ne

Thanks for your reply Konstantin. I did what you said and it worked as I wanted. Now I can switch between the branchs when necessary. I just have one more question: whenever I have to checkout between branchs, I have to input the commands that you showed me. Is there any way to automate this proce

In my case I use a bare repository. It was the easiest way I've found to manage the projects sent to the server. I start a new repository as bare and set it to put the files of the project in a specific directory in the server. But some of those projects I want to set a second branch to test some t
