NAME

       git-branchmove - move branches to or from a remote

SYNOPSIS

       git-branchmove [--detach|-d] get|put remote pattern...

DESCRIPTION

       Move branches matching pattern to or from git remote remote.

OPTIONS

       --detach|-d
           If the move would delete the currently checked out branch in the source repository, attempt to detach
           HEAD first.

           Note that in the case of the get operation, the attempt to detach HEAD is somewhat fragile.  You will
           need unrestricted SSH access to the remote, and pushInsteadOf git configuration keys will not always
           be expanded, due to limitations in git.

AUTHOR

       This Perl version of git-branchmove was written by Sean Whitton <spwhitton@spwhitton.name>, based on an
       earlier shell script by Ian Jackson.  That script made some assumptions that we try to avoid, for
       compatibility with more git remotes and local git configurations.
