How to push multiple branches from multiple commits?

Solution 1:

To push all branches (refs under refs/heads), use the following command (where origin is your remote):

git push origin --all

You can also set push.default to matching in your config to push all branches having the same name on both ends by default. For example:

git config --global push.default matching

Since Git 2.0 the default is simple which is the the safest option.

Solution 2:

If you want to push several specific branches (for example branch1 and branch2) you can use:

git push origin branch1 branch2 

In Git >= 2.4 this operation can be done atomically (i.e. if it fails to push any of the branches specified nothing will be pushed):

git push --atomic origin branch1 branch2 

Solution 3:

git push origin will push from all tracking branches up to the remote by default.

git push origin my-new-branch will push just your new branch.

I don't believe there is anything simple or possible to do accidentally that would push commits from two different branches up to the same branch and do the merge on the remote.

I would guess that the new branch had the commits from master in it's history. To see if that is true, run git log my-new-branch locally and see if those commits were in your history.

If so, when you "switched branches" you probably branched off of master after the new commits were made, so the new branch had all of the commits in the history, no just the ones unique to that branch.

Solution 4:

Late answer but I am gonna share my solution that worked for me.

Finally my /foo/.git/config file looks like:

[core]
    ...

[remote "dev"]
    url = http://dev.foobar.com/foo.git
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/dev/*
[remote "pro"]
    url = http://pro.foobar.com/foo.git
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/pro/*

[remote "all"]
    url = http://dev.foobar.com/foo.git
    url = http://pro.foobar.com/foo.git

[http]
    postBuffer = 524288000

And command;

git push all --all

Solution 5:

You can do a

 git branch | grep "<pattern>" | xargs git push 

Replace the <pattern> with a regular expression to match your branch names and that’s it.

You can add --set-upstream origin if it is your first commit for this branch
