Set a Default Push Remote with git
During my early days of git usage, my config allowed me to simply type git push instead of git push {origin} {branch_name} which I need to now. Up until recently I needed to type out the long version...(I know)...which was incredibly annoying because I like using detailed branch names.

Love this one ! Thank you for sharing.
For anyone who doesn’t want to set it local, you can also do git push origin –set-upstream per your local branches: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Branching-Remote-Branches
