Here's a quick tip for how to give your Git remotes a more meaningful name.
Personally, I don't like how every remote defaults to origin. What does that mean? Did this code from from Beanstalk? GitHub? GitStack? Who knows?
We can do better.
To assign a meaningful name to the remote when you clone a repository, simply use the -o parameter, followed by the name you wish to use. For example:
git clone git@account.beanstalkapp.com:/my-awesome-app.git -o beanstalk
or
git clone https://github.com/account/my-awesome-plugin.git -o github
To use these fancy new remotes, you can say…
git push beanstalk master
or
git push github mybranch
Easy as pie. Mmmmm… pie…
