    <p>You've summarized the difference in your question. <code>upstream</code> pushes to the <em>configured</em> upstream branch, while <code>current</code> assumes the upstream branch has the same name as the <em>current</em> local branch, and pushes to that specific name. In reality, there's no reason to assume a local branch's upstream tracking branch has the same name as the local branch itself. </p> <p>For example, if you work in multiple repositories or across many shared developer remotes, you often end up tracking different forks of the same branch, such as <code>allen-master</code> or <code>susan-master</code>, both of which track the <code>master</code> branch in Allen and Susan's repos, respectively. In this case, <code>current</code> would be the incorrect setting, because those branch names don't exist on their remotes. <code>upstream</code>, however, would work just fine.</p> <p>A more practical example might be tracking both a <code>development</code> and <code>production</code> repository. Your workflow might use a different mainline branch for each, but that might get confusing. Suppose you were a code integrator and wanted to track both repositories' <code>master</code> branches separately.</p> <pre><code>git checkout -b production --track production/master git checkout -b development --track development/master </code></pre> <p>Now you've got two branches that track their respective repositories, neither of which use the <code>master</code> naming convention at all. There's little confusion about the branch names: They explicitly describe what they track. Nevertheless, <code>push.default = current</code> wouldn't make any sense as neither remote contains a <code>development</code> or <code>production</code> branch.</p>

    1. COYou're giving two examples for when `upstream` is preferred over `current`. I think it is pretty obvious, so you should rather give an example for the opposite case.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
