28FEB28 - Git remote track fix

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 13:39:00 -0500

Intro

While working on my git repo for my research project found here: https://github.com/adminprivileges/ebpH I was making changes to a local branch and pushing it up to the remote github repo without really worrying about where it was going because I assumed it was going to a remote branch. I was wrong and the changes were going directly to main. This isnt really a huge issue since the repo is only for me, but I’m typing this out so hopefully I dont make this mistake somewhere it actually matters and so I can have the steps to fix it id it does. I’ll include the actual output to give you a practical example as well and you can check out the repo for the exact changes.
