Github branch
In Git, a branch is a lightweight movable pointer to a commit. It is essentially a label that points to a specific commit in the Git repository’s commit history.
When you create a new branch, it allows you to diverge from the main line of development and make changes without affecting the main branch.
Git status
When you run git status, Git displays the name of the current branch in the output.
