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.

[Quick Answer]

You can do it in 2 steps:

1. Use the checkout for create the local branch:

git checkout -b yourBranchName

2. Use the push command to autocreate the branch and send the code to the remote repository:

git push -u origin yourBranchName

There are multiple ways to do this but I think that this way is really simple.
