--------
'git-branch' [(-d | -D) <branchname>] | [[-f] <branchname> [<start-point>]]

'git-branch' [[-f] <branchname> [<start-point>]]

DESCRIPTION
-----------
If no argument is provided, show available branches and mark current
branch with star. Otherwise, create a new branch of name <branchname>.

If a starting point is also specified, that will be where the branch is
created, otherwise it will be created at the current HEAD.

With a `-d` or `-D` option, `<branchname>` will be deleted.
