This PR implements the requested git workflow to create a master branch from the main branch. The implementation provides a robust shell script that executes the exact commands specified in the problem statement:

  1. git checkout main
  2. git checkout -b master
  3. git push origin master

What's Added

New Script: create-master-branch.sh

  • Automates the master branch creation process
  • Includes comprehensive error handling and validation
  • Provides clear visual feedback with colored output
  • Handles edge cases like existing branches gracefully

Key Features

  • Error Handling: Validates git repository existence and branch availability
  • Idempotent: Can be run multiple times safely - switches to existing master branch if it already exists
  • Visual Feedback: Uses colored terminal output to indicate progress and status
  • Documentation: Includes clear comments explaining the purpose and implementation

Usage

./create-master-branch.sh

The script will:

  • Verify you're in a git repository
  • Switch to the main branch
  • Create a new master branch (or switch to existing one)
  • Push the master branch to origin

This implementation ensures that repositories can maintain both main and master branches as needed, which may be required for legacy compatibility or organizational standards.
