If I'm understanding this better, $ git push origin master tells git to push to remote origin, the contents of my master branch. Yes, add to the 'master' at the 'origin' at the end of the sentence and you are perfect. And then, $ git push origin feature-work tells git to push to remote origin to push the contents of feature-work branch. Yes. Hence does not make sense to ask git to do push origin master while inside feature-work branch. No. As long as you know your master is ready and suitable to be published when you ask push, the command perfectly makes sense; it does not matter on what branch you are on. You may say $ git checkout master ... work work work ... $ make test ... ahh, perfection! ... $ git checkout -b feature ... let's build a bit more .. ... while I am having fun, let's not forget to push the ... part that is already solid out $ git push origin master and that is perfectly fine without git checkout master before pushing (and git checkout feature after to come back to what you were doing). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

In my case it wouldn't because I do not modify my master branch, I just fetch upstream, merge upstream/master into my local master branch and switch to feature-work, then git push origin master will always give me Everything up-to-date I suppose (that is what always happen in my case/workflow). And just learned, the answer to my question is, while in feature-work branch, 'git push origin feature-work'.

pushing branches
Hi, How can I push a working branch to github inside it? E.g: # On master: $ git checkout -b feature-work # On feature-work # vi, hack, commit, ready to push $ git push origin master # here I expected it would working pushing my commits to a feature-work branch in github. Or if I omit master it gives me a [rejected] error. Everything up-to-date. $ git checkout master $ git push origin feature-work # Now the branch is pushed.

Or if I omit master it gives me a [rejected] error. $ git push origin master means update the branch 'master' in the remote repository with the contents of the branch 'master' in the local repository. Read the git push manual. $ git checkout master $ git push origin feature-work # Now the branch is pushed. Sure, but it has nothing to do with the previous checkout command: you just told Git to push the contents of your local branch feature-work to a remote branch feature-work which presumably does not exist and gets created as a result of your push. If you want to update the remote master branch with the contents of your local feature-work branch, do $ git push origin feature-work:master As stated below, you should really read the git push manual and reading through the appropriate sections of the http://git-scm.com/book is also highly advised. Also consider reading about the push.default configuration variable in the git config manual--this might save you from scratching your head when you try to do simple `git push origin` without specifying any branches: here again your expectation might differ from the Git defaults. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Or if I omit master it gives me a [rejected] error. Everything up-to-date. If your workflow is to push one branch at a time, and you have the same naming locally and remotely (i.e. your local branch feature-work should be pushed as feature-work on github), then you probably want to set the variable 'push.default' to either 'current', 'upstream' or 'simple' if you use the last version of Git.
