HEAD detached from refs/heads/newBranch

Question

My Main Branch is master

Current Branch is decimalQuantity

After rebasing master branch to decimalQuantity branch Found conflicts, Resolved conflicts, but it's showing as HEAD detached from refs/heads/decimalQuantity and I have few files ready to commit.

What do you mean by this, how to solve this issue?

Answer 1

To solve a detached HEAD, reattach it :

git checkout decimalQuantity

and in the case of modifications forbidding you to checkout with an error message, you can stash them (git stash), checkout as mentionned above, then reapply them (git stash pop).
