Git set upstream branch

Option 1

Normally we can set upstream branch while pushing:

// on master branch
git push -u origin master // with "-u"

or

// on master branch
git push --set-upstream origin master

In this way, we'll set a upstream branch for current local branch and push local commits to that upstream branch.

Option 2

Set upstream branch without pushing

// on master branch
git branch -u origin/master

or

// on master branch
git branch --set-upstream origin/master
