I'm trying to get better in my usage of git. In using branches, there are a few steps that confuse me:
git branch my-new-branch
git checkout my-new-branch
... make changes ...
git add .
git commit -m "my changes"
git push origin my-new-branch
Now my remote new branch is up to date, and I want to merge it into master:
git checkout master
git merge my-new-branch
This seems to bring my local master up to date, but now my remote. What's the correct next step? Doing
git push
seems to do the trick... Is that ok?
Finally, I want to delete the my-new-branch branch.
git branch -d my-new-branch
Again, things look ok locally, but not on my remote. How do I get the remote up to date now?
Is this generally the right way to go about this? Some steps smell off to me...
