However, it is primarily used as a way of \u201cchecking out\u201d different versions of your project.  For example, if you want to look at a branch or a commit from some time in the past, the <code>checkout<\/code> command is the easiest way to do that.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"checking-out-a-branch\">Checking Out a Branch With Git Checkout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\nAs you may remember from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/website\/git\/using-branches-in-git\/\">full guide on branches<\/a>, you can use the following command to view branches in your project:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre id=\"org7b6568b\" class=\"wp-block-preformatted example\">git branch\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>\nYou can use the <code>checkout<\/code> command to switch to any active branches:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre id=\"org289f1a3\" class=\"wp-block-preformatted example\">git checkout &lt;name of branch&gt;<br><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating a New Branch with Git Checkout -b<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Often, you\u2019ll want to make any changes to your codebase in a new branch that you can pull later. Create a new branch with the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">git checkout -b &lt;new branch name&gt;<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"checkout-commit\">Checkout a Commit (Detached HEAD)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\nJust as you can switch to different branches with the \u201ccheckout\u201d command, you can also switch to commits.  However, it\u2019s important to note the difference between how commits and branches behave.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nIn Git, it\u2019s very important to keep working in a linear fashion.  Branches divert from the project timeline without disrupting the workflow.  But commits are more like markers of progress that can reflect different points in time.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> If you checkout a commit, you will be warned that you are in a \u201cdetached HEAD\u201d state. This means that the HEAD reference point is no longer at the tip of the timeline but floating somewhere along the timeline.  However, the detached HEAD will not damage your project.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nTo checkout a commit, you can run a command similar to the following:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre id=\"orgc4ebb47\" class=\"wp-block-preformatted example\">git checkout &lt;commit hash&gt;\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>\nYou do not need to repeat the full commit hash, you can use the first 5-7 characters, and that should be enough.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nYou will see a warning similar to the following:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre id=\"org0160198\" class=\"wp-block-preformatted example\">Note: switching to '3c05bb0'.\n\nYou are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental\nchanges and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this\nstate without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.\n\nIf you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may\ndo so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:\n\n  git switch -c &lt;new-branch-name&gt;\n\nOr undo this operation with:\n\n  git switch -\n\nTurn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false\n\nHEAD is now at 3c05bb0 Added shortcodes file\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p> Once you are done \u201clooking around\u201d you can use the <code>git switch -<\/code> command (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/website\/git\/git-switch\/\">our full guide on the \u201cswitch\u201d command<\/a>) to get back to the master branch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"publish-files\">Using a Checkout to Publish or Move Files<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\nThe checkout command can also be used in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/website\/git\/git-hooks\/\">hook<\/a>.  The follow <code>bash<\/code> script will allow you to check out files to different locations.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre id=\"org4253e34\" class=\"wp-block-preformatted example\">#!\/bin\/sh \ngit --work-tree=\/home\/userna5\/public_html --git-dir=\/home\/userna5\/production.git checkout -f\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p> In the above example, the <code>--work-tree<\/code> is the destination you would like to send the project files to, and the <code>--git-dir<\/code> is the location of the repository.  This command will take the current project snapshot and match it to the \u201cwork-tree\u201d.  This is a great way to take files in your Git project and move them around between local or remote file systems.  (See the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/website\/git\/using-git-to-publish-files\/\">full guide on publishing files with Git<\/a>). <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"jumbotron\">\r\n<p>If you don\u2019t need cPanel, don't pay for it.
