Push
Published Updated
What is Push?
The act of uploading your local repository's committed changes to a remote repository server.
Pushing transfers your local commit history to a remote branch. It updates the remote server with the work you've completed locally. You can only push if you have write access to the remote repository and if your local branch is up-to-date with the remote branch.
How it relates to Orbit
Orbit keeps publication status explicit when a run finishes but its commit has not reached the integration target. See Git Tab & Recovery for details.
When you would use it
You use push when you have safely committed your code locally and are ready to share it with your team or deploy it.
