"detached HEAD" can have many reasons. It only means that your workspace
is not on any branch at the moment.
e.g if you check out a specific commit hash or if you merge something
which needs manual conflict resolution.
'git status' might tell you more.
If nothing needs to be resolved and everything is fine 'git switch -'
should bring you back to the HEAD or 'git checkout my_branch' would do
the same.

Hello, Everyone --
I am using Netbeans 23 and new to Git and Github.
I am experiencing a "Not on a branch (detached head state)"
situation and have fewer than one clue what to do about it. In
searching the web I did not find a satisfactory answer (possibly due
to my ignorance of what one would look like) but I did find agreement
that it was difficult to tell from posters' inquiries what the problem
might be or why it is occurring in my case.
Does anyone have a good source for information about this problem?
I have Tsitoara, Beginning Git and Github, but it is silent about this
problem.
TIA!
