GIT - Push only to a remote branch

Hi,

I'm working on a local repo, theres 2 branches, the master and the feature_x

I wanna push feature_x to remote, but dont wanna push the changes on master branch.

Doing a "git push origin feature_x" from my feature_x branch (feature_x branch already exists on remote) will work?

I just don't wanna test this on my box, because I can't push to master right now.

Thanks

From stackoverflow

• yes, just do the following

  git checkout feature_x
  git push origin feature_x
  

  Jakub Narębski : With modern git you should be able to simply "git push origin HEAD", or even "git push HEAD" to push only currently checked-out branch.

  Sounds like it would work.
