[Digikam-devel] AAA!!! How to commit to a remote branch?

[Marcel Wiesweg]

One important thing is the default push setting:
push.default=tracking
which I have set globally.

The local branch names can be chosen freely, at least if you explicitly 
specify the remote tracking branch at creation.

By far the most information can be retrieved with this command:

git remote -v show origin

which for me gives:

* remote origin
  Fetch URL: git://anongit.kde.org/digikam
  Push  URL: ssh://git@git.kde.org/digikam
  HEAD branch: master
  Remote branches:
    development/0.10                             tracked
    development/0.8                              tracked
    development/0.8.x                            tracked
    development/0.9.x                            tracked
    development/1.2                              tracked
    development/1.3                              tracked
    development/3.0.0                            tracked
    gsoc/clone                                   tracked
    kde3                                         tracked
    master                                       tracked
    refs/remotes/origin/development/kmap2kgeomap stale (use 'git remote prune' 
to remove)
    refs/remotes/origin/origin/development/3.0.0 stale (use 'git remote prune' 
to remove)
    sok/presentation                             tracked
    sql/2.0                                      tracked
  Local branches configured for 'git pull':
    3.0          merges with remote development/3.0.0
    clone        merges with remote gsoc/clone
    master       merges with remote master
    presentation merges with remote sok/presentation
  Local ref configured for 'git push':
    master pushes to master (fast-forwardable)
