Git push my branch changes to another repository

Question

I am in a Git repository, and in my branch there are some commits. I need to push only this branch's changes into another remote repository. How can I achieve this?

I have tried the command git push git@bitbucket.org:XXX/XXX.git launchpad-issues .

This command pushes the whole repository, but I am looking to just push the changes on one branch only.

Answer 1

You can add another remote to your local git and then push to it. Say you want to push the foo branch

# Add another remote called 'my-other-repo'
git remote add my-other-repo git@bitbucket.org:XXX/XXX.git

# Push the foo branch to my-other-repo
git push my-other-repo foo

And if you want you can optionally remove the remote afterward

git remote remove my-other-repo
