%prog <newbranchname> [<project>...]
This subcommand starts a new branch of development that is automatically
pulled from a remote branch.
It is equivalent to the following git commands:
"git branch --track <newbranchname> m/<codeline>",
or
"git checkout --track -b <newbranchname> m/<codeline>".
All three forms set up the config entries that repo bases some of its
processing on. Use %prog or git branch or checkout with --track to ensure
the configuration data is set up properly.
