Problem Statement

Nautilus developers are actively working on one of the project repositories, /usr/src/kodekloudrepos/beta. They need to implement new features in a separate branch to keep those changes isolated. The DevOps team is required to:

  1. Create a new branch named xfusioncorp_beta from the master branch in the repository located at /usr/src/kodekloudrepos/beta on the Storage server in Stratos DC.

Please ensure no code changes are made.

Solution

  1. Login to the Storage Server and Gain Root Access:

    • Connect to the Storage server using SSH.
    • Switch to the root user.
    ssh natasha@ststor01
sudo su

  2. Navigate to the Repository Directory:

    • Change to the directory where the repository is located.
    cd /usr/src/kodekloudrepos/beta

  3. Verify the Current Branches:

    • List the branches to confirm you are in the correct repository and to ensure the master branch is available.
    git branch

    Expected Output:

    * kodekloud_beta
  master

  4. Ensure You Are on the Master Branch:

    • Switch to the master branch if not already on it. This step ensures that the new branch is created from the correct base branch.
    git checkout master

  5. Create and Switch to the New Branch:

    • Create a new branch named xfusioncorp_beta from the master branch.
    • Optionally, switch to the new branch to start working on it immediately.
    git branch xfusioncorp_beta
git checkout xfusioncorp_beta

    Alternatively, you can combine the above two commands into a single step:

    git checkout -b xfusioncorp_beta

  6. Verify the New Branch Creation:

    • Confirm that the new branch has been created and is currently checked out.
    git branch

    Expected Output:

      kodekloud_beta
  master
* xfusioncorp_beta
