20 * Creates a new branch, where:
22 * - name is the new branch name
24 * - start_name is the name of the existing branch that the new branch should
27 * - force enables overwriting an existing (non-head) branch
29 * - clobber_head_ok allows the currently checked out (hence existing)
30 * branch to be overwritten; without 'force', it has no effect.
32 * - reflog creates a reflog for the branch
34 * - quiet suppresses tracking information
36 * - track causes the new branch to be configured to merge the remote branch
37 * that start_name is a tracking branch for (if any).
