Description markiewb 2013-02-25 20:34:57 UTC 
Created attachment 131866 [details]
Shows the dialog with new checkbox

When creating a git branch i like to switch to the newly created branch afterwards. Currently it takes to much steps.

ACTUAL Workflow: Right click on project->GIT->Branch->Create Branch->Type in branch name->Click on Create-Button->Right click on the project->GIT->Switch to Branch->Search for the previous typed in branch name->Click on switch

EXPECTED Workflow: Right click on project->GIT->Branch->Create Branch->Type in branch name->Click on "Create and switch to Branch" button (it could also implemented as an checkable option in the create branch dialog)

Already possible via Git -> Checkout Revision (checkout as new branch)

Thanks. I was not aware of this.
Comment 3 Ondrej Vrabec 2013-02-26 06:33:16 UTC 
On the second thought this may be useful.
1) Not everyone is aware of Git -> Checkout and the create branch option
2) Git -> Create Branch and checkout may be similar to 1) but in the opposite order so some may find it useful.
