Question

I am trying to do a Rails 3 upgrade.

So what I did is a created a branch -b rails-3

I’ve been working in that branch

I want to push it into a remote repository (just in case something goes down on my local machine)

How do I do that?

If I do git push it says everything is up to date….

Answer 1

git push origin HEAD:refs/heads/branch-name should do the trick. It will create a branch called branch-name on the origin repository and copy your HEAD to it.
