-# How to create a branch **(FREE)**
+This document was moved to [another location](../tutorials/make_your_first_git_commit.md).
-A branch is an independent line of development in a [project](../user/project/index.md).
-
-When you create a branch (in your [terminal](start-using-git.md#create-a-branch) or with
-[the web interface](../user/project/repository/web_editor.md#create-a-new-branch)),
-you are creating a snapshot of a certain branch, usually the main branch,
-at its current state. From there, you can start to make your own changes without
-affecting the main codebase. The history of your changes is tracked in your branch.
-
-When your changes are ready, you then merge them into the rest of the codebase with a
-[merge request](../user/project/merge_requests/creating_merge_requests.md).
