Wow, I did not see that in the man pages... but I see it now.  Thanks!

So I guess I would change my ask to this:

"git push -u"

Should default to "origin branch" if no parameters are provided.  Thoughts?

Thanks,
Cliff

I'm proposing a shortcut for this command.

What's wrong with "$ git push -u origin branch"?
