Description Manuel Doninger CLA 2011-09-05 07:15:35 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

If you create a local branch, and push this branch later, there is no possibility to create a remote url configuration, which is needed for the Team Project Set export.
In the .git/config file you need an entry like this for the PSF export:


[branch "localbranch"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/branch

EGit should provide a UI to configure those remote (maybe it's possible with the Configure Push to Upstream wizard to create this configuration).

Reproducible: Always

It's possible since this change: https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/5047/

But it should be possible to configure this when pushing a branch for the first time. I opened bug 378960 about this.
