This command is used in git to set up a tracking relationship between a local branch and a remote branch.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
git branch
: This is the command to manage branches in git.--set-upstream-to
: This option is used to set the upstream branch of a local branch.${remote}/${remote_branch}
: This is the remote branch that you want to set as the upstream branch for your local branch.${remote}
refers to the name of the remote repository (e.g., origin), and${remote_branch}
refers to the name of the remote branch.${local_branch}
: This is the name of the local branch that you want to set the upstream branch for.
Overall, this command is used to establish a connection between a local branch and a remote branch. Once this tracking relationship is established, you can use the git pull
command to easily fetch and merge changes from the remote branch into your local branch.
