Use the name of the current branch when pushing by default as the name of the remote branch.
- Use `git config push.default current` to set the name of the remote branch to the one of the current local branch as the default.
- You can use the `--global` flag to configure this option globally.
```shell
git config [--global] push.default current
```
```shell
git config --global push.default current
git checkout -b my-branch
git push -u
# Pushes to origin/my-branch
```
