Azure DevOps Build Process Create Git Branch

folks,

I'll give you a brief description of my problem. I have an Angular App in a TFS Git repository, now I want to build this app with Azure DevOps, when that's done, I want to create a new Git Branch from Master

The build process runs smoothly, only creating a new branch is not possible. Can you help me ?

I try it with a Powershell Script like

git branch [aNewBranch] master

or

git checkout -q [aNewBranch]

but it don't work.

I am guessing you need a branch from your master branch [with all changes as iin master branch].

Do these steps.

Just check the logs 
    git log --oneline -10

Fetch everything from repo
    git fetch origin [or any remote name]

Keep checking the logs 
    git log --oneline -10

go to master branch 
    git checkout master
        if master branch does not exists in your local machine - 
            create it with : git checkout -b master 

Now you are in master branch. 

rebase with master branch 
    git rebase origin/master

If you have some code changes already done in master branch (I am guessing the changes are not committed) - 
        git commit -am "Commit message here.. for your changes" [params : a for all, m for message]

Keep checking the logs 
    git log --oneline -10

Currently you are in master with new changes [with new commit]

Now go to new branch with changes [as it is in master - I guess this is what you expect]
        git checkout -b NewBranch

Keep checking the logs 
    git log --oneline -10
