Can I check out a new branch?

[zkytony]

Is it possible to checkout a ref that does not exist (such as a new branch)?

    - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      with:
        ref: "new-branch"

That's not what this action is meant for, but you could do something like this if you need it:

    - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      with:
        ref: "existing-branch"
    - run: |
        git checkout -b new-branch
