Renames a local branch.
|
|
|
|
- Use `git branch -m <old-name> <new-name>` to rename `<old-name>` to `<new-name>`.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
git branch -m <old-name> <new-name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
git checkout master
|
|
git branch -m patch-1 patch-2
|
|
# Renames `patch-1` to `patch-2`
|
|
```
