Re: Get "Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master'" message when explicitly passing origin url at push command
Thanks, it really helped to understand. Since what I want to do is to run git pull/push from within a script in a Jenkins job and Jenkins already has the git user stored, I thougth is odd to store them at a git credential helper. My solution is running (before git pull/push): git config remote.origin.url https://$GIT_USER:$git_passw...@bitbucket.org/... while at the start of the script trapping EXIT signal and resetting origin as following: trap "sudo git config remote.origin.url https://$git_u...@bitbucket.org/...; EXIT Make sense or am I missing something?

It uses your configured "push.default" behavior ("simple" by default) to determine which refs to push and pushes your master branch to the origin's master branch. Since it _knows_ it pushed to origin, it updates your local "refs/remotes/origin/master" ref with the same commit it just pushed, resulting in an "up-to-date" message. > > ubuntu@ci-bentzy:/var/lib/jenkins$ git status > On branch master > Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'. > nothing to commit, working directory clean > ubuntu@ci-bentzy:/var/lib/jenkins$ > > __ > > Second try: passing origin url explicitily > > ubuntu@ci-bentzy:/var/lib/jenkins$ sudo git push > https://bitbucket.org/OWNER/jenkinsconf-repo.git This, on the other hand, _is not pushing to a configured remote_. It's pushing to an explicit URL, which happens to match the URL of a configured remote. But it's still not a configured remote. It's using origin's URL, but you didn't push to origin. As a result, "refs/remotes/origin/master" is not updated, and you get an "ahead" message. > > ubuntu@ci-bentzy:/var/lib/jenkins$ git status > On branch master > Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit. > (use "git push" to publish your local commits) > nothing to commit, working directory clean > > __ > > An additional " sudo git push" (without explicit origin) solves the issue Everything here is working as intended. If you want to push to a _remote_, you either need to: - Name the remote ("git push origin"), or - Leave it off, so Git will assume origin ("git push") Pushing to a URL that matches a remote's URL is _not_ pushing to a remote. It's pushing to an explicit URL. Hope this helps, Bryan Turner > > >
