How do I push a local Git branch to master branch in the remote?

I have a branch called develop in my local repo, and I want to make sure that when I push it to origin it's merged with the origin/master. Currently, when I push it's added to a remote develop branch.

How can I do this?

Solution 
  • $ git push origin develop:master

    or, more generally

    $ git push <remote> <local branch name>:<remote branch to push into>
