Synchronize upstream branch
$ git push -u origin HEAD
try on your machine
The command "git push -u origin HEAD" is used in Git to upload or push local branch commits to a remote repository. Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "git push" is the command to send local commits to a remote repository.
- "-u" sets the upstream branch for the current local branch. This means that Git remembers the remote branch to which the local branch is linked for future pushes and pulls.
- "origin" is the name of the remote repository. It is a common convention to use "origin" as the default name of the remote repository where the local repository was cloned from.
- "HEAD" is a reference to the current commit in the local branch. It is the topmost commit on the branch's commit tree.
Combining all these parts, the "git push -u origin HEAD" command will upload the commits from the current local branch to the remote repository named "origin". Additionally, it sets the upstream branch for the local branch, so that subsequent pushes or pulls can be done with just "git push" or "git pull".

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
