git push vs git push origin branchname

Question

I m quite new to Git   I m creating a branch and then want to push it to origin   I think that simply issuing git push  while standing on my branch  should be sufficient   Is it possible reasonable to do that  by specifying push default simple

The first push should be a   git push -u origin branchname   That would make sure    your local branch has a remote tracking branch of the same name referring an upstream branch in your remote repo  origin   this is compliant with the default push policy  simple    Any future git push will  with that default policy  only push the current branch  and only if that branch has an upstream branch with the same name  that avoid pushing all matching branches  previous default policy   where tons of test branches were pushed even though they aren t ready to be visible on the upstream repo

First  you need to create your branch locally  git checkout -b your branch   After that  you can work locally in your branch  when you are ready to share the branch  push it  The next command push the branch to the remote repository origin and tracks it  git push -u origin your branch   Your Teammates colleagues can push to your branch by doing commits and then push explicitly      work     git commit     work     git commit git push origin HEAD refs heads your branch
