You can default git to using your current branch and a specific upstream so you don’t have to put anything after git push
Thanks didn’t know that
Has git never told you that you should use
git push -u origin <branch>
when you push a new branch for the first time?The first time you manually push like that, you can add the
-u
flag (git push -u origin master
) to push and set the branch’s default upstream. Afterwards, a plaingit push
while that branch is checked out will push the branch to that default upstream. This is per-branch, so you can have amain
branch that pulls from one repository and apatch
branch that pulls and pushes to a different repository.My strategy is to just type
git push
and get some kind of error message about upstream not being set or something. That’s a signal for me to take a second to think about what I’m actually doing and type the correct command.… google the error and randomly try stack overflow answers without really understanding them.
