Git Push Arguments 2

Task

Push the contents of the local foo branch to the main branch on origin, explicitly giving different names for the source and the destination.

Requirements

• The source must be the local foo branch.
• The destination must be the remote main branch.
• Use a refspec in the form source:destination.

Expected result

The remote main and the local pointer o/main must move to the commit of the foo branch. The local main branch must not move.

What you will learn

After completing this task you will be able to:

• read and write refspecs for push;
• push a local branch under a different remote name;
• distinguish the source from the destination of a push.
