title: Visual Studio 2015 Team Explorer Git branches not working properly
body: <p>I have got access to a private git repository [like git.itabc.com] from my client. The code is on master branch. I am asked to create a new branch each time i start a new task. so I go to Team Explorer and select current branch <a href="http://prntscr.com/cmfxtp" rel="nofollow">http://prntscr.com/cmfxtp</a> and click "Create New Local Branch From" and create a branch (which gets checked out and selected). Then I commit the code using Tortoise git ( beacuse when i try to commit/publish branch using Team Explorer publish, I get error </p>
  
  <pre><code>"Inner Exception:
      The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly."
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when i try to work on another computer, I don't see that new branch untill i clone the code again and mention new branch name in clone settings like this <a href="http://prntscr.com/cmfzbl" rel="nofollow">http://prntscr.com/cmfzbl</a></p>
  
  <p>How can I do all this from visual studio team explorer?</p>
  
  <p>Please suggest.</p>
