Question

I think I did ‘git pull’ before being in a branch, and now when I do ‘git branch’ it shows this:

* (no branch)
  master

How can I move ‘no branch’ into ‘master’ so then I can do ‘git push’ ?

Answer 1

To move between branches:

git checkout <branch_name>

To push the commits of a branch without being in it, you can specify more parameters after the push command:

git push <remote> <branch_name>

This will push the local branch that tracks the remote branch called branch_name.
