How do you create a remote Git branch?

Question

I created a local branch which I want to \'push\' upstream. There is a similar question here on Stack Overflow on how to track a newly created remote branch.

If you wanna actually just create remote branch without having the local one, you can do it like this:

git push origin HEAD:refs/heads/foo

It pushes whatever is your HEAD to branch foo that did not exist on the remote.
