Option to push a new branch to a remote

[sminnee]

When you create a remote, it appears push the current branch to that remote. It would be nice if there was a way of pushing additional branches to the remote.

The command that I'm thinking of would be one of the form

git push (remote) (branch):(branch)

Perhaps the "push" menu can include local branches that don't exist on the given remote in the push menu, labelled appropriately? Something like:

• Push
  • prod
  • master
  • Add '0.1' to 'prod'

Alternatively, we could have an extra level of menu items:

• Push
  • prod
  • master
  • Add a branch
    • 0.1

I think this is slightly more advanced than what the toolbar menu's can support. I plan on working on the sidebar part of the project sometime next month and I think that there will be better places to do management of remotes in that UI.

There we should be able to do what you are asking.

Fair enough; those menus are getting kind of full.

This works now. In the contextual menu for a branch you can select any remote to push to.
