I do not understand what you mean by 'track' here, since a branch tracking an upstream means it is using it to pull from and/or push to. is there a way to track a different remote branch from the one you are This results in the message What remote/branch should '' push to an pull from?, which implies that a branch can only be set to push and pull from the same upstream via GitKraken. When right-clicking a branch, you can select to Set Upstream. My question is, is there any way to set a different remote repository And if I make any changes, I can push my fork at origin/develop and create a pull request there to merge to upstream/develop if the changes are approved.Īlso, in in Gitkraken if I right click upstream/develop there is an option to merge upstream/develop into develop that should take the most recent changes in upstream/develop and merge it into my local copy right? (God help me if suddenly I'm merging my local develop to upstream). So if people make changes to the original repository, it'll show up in my Sourcetree and I'll know to pull from upstream/develop to local/develop. And if that isn't possible, is there a way to track a different remote branch from the one you are pushing/pulling from?įor example Sourcetree is set up so that local/develop tracks the remote branch upstream/develop, while pushing to the remote branch origin/develop. push to origin/develop pull from upstream/develop using the buttons on the top menubar). My question is, is there any way to set a different remote repository in Gitkraken for pushes and pulls? (E.g. I've recently found an Ubuntu machine to develop on, and having found that Sourcetree isn't available for Ubuntu, found Gitkraken as a potential alternative.

I've been working on a Mac using Sourcetree to manage my repositories.
