It would be nice to have the ability to manage branches on remote server. Use Case: Pushing a locally created/modified branch(or tag) to the remote which is in a non-master, non-existent form. With git you could do something along the lines as: git push <remote-name> <local-branch-name>:<remote-branch-name> I have attempted to trick the IDE into doing my bidding by attempting to create a branch named origin/<branch name> and pushing that to the remote but can only push it to the master branch. This feature would be huge in the case of team-based collaboration between multiple new feature branches.
Errrrr.... I forgot one little detail! git push <remote-name> <local-branch-name>:<remote-branch-name> Works by copying the local branch name to a new remote branch of the same name. You cannot however create a remote branch with a different name then that of the local one. Example: Works: git push origin feature1 Does not work: git push origin feature1:newFeature1 (referring to IDE control, both commands work as intended via shell use
