Checkout the Previous Branch with git
Command line shortcuts are can be a huge time saver, which is why I like creating bash aliases and and enjoy other tricks I've found. I do have a list of tasks I don't yet have a shortcut for, like easy switching between my current branch and the previous branch.

# Go back to the previous branch
git checkout -
