Branches let you take a snapshot of your data, experiment freely, and merge the results back without affecting the original. The commands map closely to git.

​
Create a Branch

Create a new branch and check it out in one step with oxen checkout -b. 
oxen checkout -b feature

​
List Branches

To list the branches in your repository (highlighting the one you’re on), use oxen branch. 
oxen branch
To see branches that exist on the remotes, add --remote. 
oxen branch --remote
To delete a branch, use oxen branch --delete. This fails if the branch has changes that haven’t been merged. 
oxen branch --delete feature
Use -D to force-delete a branch. 
oxen branch -D feature

​
Switch Between Branches

Use oxen checkout to switch branches. This restores the working directory to the HEAD commit of the branch you’re checking out. 
oxen checkout main
You can also check out a specific commit. 
oxen checkout COMMIT_ID

​
Merge Branches

Merge another branch into your current branch with oxen merge. This creates a merge commit, or fails if there are conflicts to resolve. 
oxen merge TARGET_BRANCH
If you’re collaborating, you may instead want to open a merge request through the Oxen.ai web UI. Oxen.ai merge request
