How to see a remote branch, created with ADO, locally with a git command?

Question

I've tried several git commands, but I can't seem to be able to see the remote branch that I've created using azure devops. Branch name is pbi7642_task7917.

With git branch -av | Select-String task7917 , on my machine, in powershell, I don't see the new branch.

Afterwards, yes. I did a ```git fetch --all``` and that did it. — Johan Doe, May 27 '21 at 16:14

git fetch --all did most of the trick.

Subsequently git checkout remotes/origin/pbi7642_task7917 and git switch -c pbi7642_task7917 got me going.

I was helped by similar question Git: Merge a Remote branch locally.
