Git Checkout Remote Branch

I just create a branch call release-1.0 I run git branch I got

release-1.0 * master

I checked source tree, I saw that both branches are exist in the remote as well.

How come's when my QA run git branch they don't see what I see ? They only see master. They also did a git fetch, and a git pull.

What command should they run to checkout the branch that I just create ?

You need to push your branch with git push and then they need to run the commands: git pull and git checkout release-1.0

Git let's you name branches however you want to. It does not force you to follow any specific methodology. It sounds like you've created a branch when a tag may have been more appropriate. Try doing your development in a branch named development and when you do a release you can create a tag to save that point in history. There are many methodologies you can follow, git flow is a popular one.
