| Note: checking out '37060ec22b7ac3f8a795df7fa1f5ce0579d58b4e'. | |
| You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental | |
| changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this | |
| state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. | |
| If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may | |
| do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example: | |
| git checkout -b new_branch_name | |
| HEAD is now at 37060ec... asfasdfas | |
| # Verify the current commit (for example: in the browser by reloading a page) | |
