Create a new remote GIT branch

My workflow is generally something like this:

1. Create a remote branch
2. Create a local branch that tracks it
3. Work, Test, Commit (repeat) — this is all local
4. Push (pushes commits to the remote repository)

Because I always forget howto make a new remote branch I wrote this small article about it:

## 1. Create the remote branch

git push origin origin:refs/heads/new_feature_name

## 2. Make sure everything is up-to-date

git fetch origin

## 3. Then you can see that the branch is created.

git branch -r

This should show ‘origin/new_feature_name’

## 4. Start tracking the new branch

git checkout new_feature_name
