I find this terminology confusing. Doesn't the master contain the branch? So, why can't I push a branch against the master? If I've checked out branch x, the push will be applied to that branch, I would expect.
Why is it designed so that you must specify the branch with checkout but again specify the branch with push -- seems redundant. I'm sure to be corrected :) The git tutorial: http://jk.gs/gittutorial.html doesn't mention this in a way which I saw, they just switch back to the master and drop the branch as redundant, ignoring the possibility of pushing that branch. For me, this was an oversight. thanks, Thufir -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
