Git branch another branch from current branch

Question

Your current branch is master and if u create another branch like that git branch develop,then in branch develop you will have similar code about master。how can i get an empty branch.

What exactly is an "empty branch" in your book and what does this have to do with Android? :) — Martin Marconcini, Oct 25 '13 at 05:15
There's no empty branch. You could branch off the initial commit at best, but I don't see why would ever want to do that. Maybe you just want another repository? — Frank Osterfeld, Oct 25 '13 at 05:23

You can create an orphan branch, which start without parent, and will be effectively "empty".

git checkout --orphan develop

This is since git 1.7.2: see "In git, is there a simple way of introducing an unrelated branch to a repository?".
