According to the tutorial i found i need now to push this, but i'm not sure if the command really does the right thing:
henning@ca:~/sip-router$ git push origin marius-tmp --dry-run To ssh://henning@git.sip-router.org/sip-router
- [new branch] marius-tmp -> marius-tmp
It seems that it want to create a new remote branch, which is not really what i want..
You need to specify the name of the branch in the remote repository you want to push to if the name of the local branch and the name of the remote branch do not match:
$ git push origin marius-tmp:sr_3.0
The manpage on git-push describes what happens if you omit the name of the destination branch:
The <dst> tells which ref on the remote side is updated with this push. Arbitrary expressions cannot be used here, an actual ref must be named. If :<dst> is omitted, the same ref as <src> will be updated.
Hello Jan,
thank you, that did the trick! :)
