How can I push a local Git branch to a remote with a different name easily?

Question

I\'ve been wondering if there\'s an easy way to push and pull a local branch with a remote branch with a different name without always specifying both names.

For exa

Answer 1

When you do the initial push add the -u parameter:

git push -u origin my_branch:remote_branch

Subsequent pushes will go where you want.

EDIT:

As per the comment, that only sets up pull.

git branch --set-upstream

should do it.
