error: pathspec did not match any file(s) known to git

Post creating a new branch in the repo, next step was to run the checkout command locally.  On my local environment I ran the following command

git checkout {branch-name}

However, the response was

error: pathspec '{branch-name}' did not match any file(s) known to git

Solution

The issue while the new branch is known in the repo, it's not known in my local environment.  To make the new branch known you need to run the fetch command

git fetch --all

git checkout drupal-10
