Cloning Multiple Branches in GitHub for Windows

问题

I sometimes need to have two different branches of a GitHub repo on my local disk at the same time. (especially when dealing with gh-pages)

I usually do this by making multiple clones of the repo in different folder, with clone using a different branch.

Is it possible to do this in the GitHub for Windows UI? (as opposed to switching a single local clone from one branch to another)
It looks like the only way to switch between local clones is to drag the new clone into the UI every time.

回答1:

I don't think it is possible to do what you want to do with the current version (1.0.9.2) but here is what I do to work on two branches.

1. Clone the two branches from the Git Shell

   git clone https://your-project/master/ master

   git clone https://your-project/gh-pages/ gh-pages

2. In Git for Windows, drag & drop the folder you want to work on.

3. To switch branch, drag & drop the folder for the other branch.
