I issued the following pull to our GitHub repo…

L.MVC4 (master *)$ git pull
remote: Counting objects: 59, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (9/9), done.
remote: Total 36 (delta 29), reused 34 (delta 27)
Unpacking objects: 100% (36/36), done.
From https://github.com/CM/L.MVC4
   b002a02..82deccf  master     -> origin/master
   e690bc3..d23f567  koprod3    -> origin/koprod3
 * [new branch]      koprod4    -> origin/koprod4
Updating b002a02..82deccf

… and noticed 2 branches (koprod3, koprod4) from a coworker he checked in were pulled. However, when I do a git branch I only get my branches…

L.MVC4 (master *)$ git branch
* master
  newbranch
  seeddata

So how do I gain access to his branches. It appears they have already been pulled?

    These are remote branches. To see them, either run git branch -r (only show remote branches) or git branch -a (show all branches).

    To check them out, use git checkout -b koprod3 origin/koprod3 (newer versions of Git also allow just git checkout koprod3). To create a local branch at the commit they are currently pointing to, issue the command git branch koprod3 origin/koprod3.

    Of course, the name for your local branch can be anything and must not be identical to the remote name.
