title: Copy a local git branch from one working copy to another
body: <p>I have a few local branches containing experimental work. For a reason unrelated to git, i must have several working copies of the same remote. How can i duplicate the local branches in other working copies without pushing them to the remote?</p>
  
  <p>The branches need not remain synchronized i.e. i'm not expecting to be able to see my commits appear in other working copies after duplicating the branches. I know i can just copy the contents to a new local branch in the target working copy, but is there a way to import the commits too?</p>
