Defines the default remote branch for the current local branch.

Any git pull future command (with the local branch checked-out) will try to bring commits from <remote-branch> current local branch.

One way to avoid having to explicitly --set-upstream is use the abbreviated flag -u , along with git push as follows

git push -u origin local-branch

This sets the upstream association for any future push / pull attempts automatically.
