Introduction

• git push command is used to upload local repository content to a remote repository (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket).
• It transfers your committed changes from the current local branch to a branch on the remote repository.
• It ensures that your team or remote server has the latest version of your code.
• It is commonly used after making and committing changes using git commit.

   • You have added the remote repository using:
     • git remote add origin https://github.com/SmartProgrammingCoders/GitDemo.git Command
   • You have checked that local and remote branch name are same, if not same then change it using:
     • git branch -M main Command

Different ways to use git push ?

1. Basic Push to Remote Repository::
   • Push committed changes from your local branch to a remote repository.
   • Syntax :
     • git push origin <branch-name>
   • Example:
     • git push origin main
2. Push and Set Upstream (Track Remote Branch):
   • Sets the remote branch as the default upstream for your local branch.
   • Syntax:
     • git push -u origin <branch-name>
   • Example:
     • git push -u origin main
   • Note : After this, you can simply run git push next time.
3. Push All Branches:
   • Push all local branches to the remote repository.
   • Example:
     • git push --all origin
4. Push Tags:
   • If you’ve created Git tags and want to push them:
   • Example:
     • git push origin --tags
5. Force Push:
   • Used to overwrite remote history with local changes (⚠️ use with caution).
   • Example:
     • git push --force
     • git push origin main --force
6. Push to a Different Remote:
   • If your remote is named something other than origin, specify it:
   • Syntax:
     • git push my-remote-name <branch-name>
