How do I push a new local branch to a remote Git repository and track it too

0 votes
I want to be able to create a local branch based on another either remote or local branch going through git branch or git checkout -b). I also want to push the local branch to the remote repository but, however, want to make it trackable so git pull and git push will work immediately. How do I do that? I know about --set-upstream in Git 1.7, but that is a post-creation action. I want to find a way to make a similar change when pushing the branch to the remote repository.

In Git 1.7.0 and later, you can checkout a new branch by using:

git checkout -b <branch>

Which will help in Editing files, add and commit following which, it will then push with the -u (short for --set-upstream) option:

git push -u origin <branch>

Git will set up the tracking information during the push.
