Seeing this dialog is just pure annoyance to me. I push a lot of branches from a lot of different repos to different remote repos. I want to get rid of the additional dialog that asks me to choose an origin from a list that consists of only 1 origin. I want to note that existence of the first dialog (the one that tells me that there is no remote branch) is okay as it was there in the past. Upstream and Downstream In Git terminology, any repository that you clone from, pull from, or push to is Upstream to your repository and your local repository is Downstream to that repository.

Most of my repos have one origin and it is annoying that it asks me which origin to push the branch to with only one option available. Setting Upstream Branches makes it very easy for us to connect with the remote repositories.

If there were two origins, it would ask me which origin to push into.Ĭurrently, when I push a branch to origin, it shows the “origin selector” regardless of the number of origins. When I clicked “Publish” (or whatever the button said), it would immediately create the remote branch in origin and publish to it. If I clicked “push” from within VSCode, it would show a dialog that local branch does not exist in remote and ask me if I should create the branch. In the past, it didn’t matter where I created the branch from - terminal or within VSCode. However, what I am asking is specifically about how VSCode handles it (and how it used to handle it). What you mentioned is related to GIT in general. Also, VSCode shows different origins if there are more than one origins (if I am not mistaken, it even shows it for fetching from a specific origin).
