How to create a branch in git from a specific commit id
As a programmer, each one of us has worked with branches in Git.
Sometimes, you will want to go back to a commit that was done previously or you may want to create a branch from a previous commit.
You can do this using the following command:
git branch branch_name <commit_sha>
You can check the logs and copy the commit id at which you want to create the branch. An example of this is shown below:
git branch anjana d0a9ba
