fix(server): honor the configured push remote on tracked branches - #24047
A common fork setup clones the source repository as origin, adds a personal fork, and sets remote.pushDefault=fork (or branch.<name>.pushRemote=fork). T3 Code's Push ignores both once the branch tracks a same-named branch: topic tracking origin/topic is pushed to origin, so the commits land in the source repository, or Push fails without write access there.
Change
On the same-name path, when a configured push remote differs from the tracked remote, Push sends HEAD to the tracked branch name on that remote without -u, as plain git push does. The up-to-date skip and Push & create PR's PR head follow the same destination.
Scope
A bug fix: Push sends commits to the wrong repository. #788 added support for branch.<name>.pushRemote and remote.pushDefault, and this path bypasses them. No settings, defaults or UI code change.
Verification
To see it on Linux web: (1) build the clone with "Exact steps" in the details: topic must track origin/topic (git push -u origin topic), then remote.pushDefault fork and a new commit, (2) add it with Add project > Local folder, (3) Git action options > Push: main says "Pushed to origin/topic" and source.git gets the commit, not the fork.
I ran exactly that on main 7462f234e8, this head f3a1a83cf1 and the local merge 3c08f13aa8, on web, Android and iOS. On main the commit lands in origin; on the head and the merge it lands in fork, and topic still tracks origin/topic. All nine runs match. With this head's tests on main's code, the nine push-remote and PR-head cases fail.
Re-checked against main 476fc9be66 on 2026-11-12 (the maintainer's run covered Push at 22568fb058): on main, by the exact steps, Push said "Pushed to origin/topic" and the fork kept "Start topic"; the nine cases fail there without the change and pass with it; the branch merges cleanly.
Exact steps, setup detail, change detail, method, before and after blocks, the GitHub run, tests, client limits, remote state for every run
Exact steps (Linux, git 2.28 or newer; both remotes are local bare repositories and every path is relative).
T3 Code at the commit under test:
git clone https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code.git
cd t3code
git checkout 476fc9be66
vp i
vp run dev
Open the pairingUrl: it prints. 2. In a new, empty folder, in a second terminal:
git push --dry-run shows To ../personal-fork.git: plain git push would go to the fork. For the second setting, use git config branch.topic.pushRemote fork in place of git config remote.pushDefault fork, in a fresh folder.
In T3 Code: Add project, Local folder, the full path of sample-push, Enter. In Thread details > Version Control the branch reads topic; click Git action options (the chevron beside Push & create PR), then Push.
Expected, as git push does: the fork shows "Add a line to notes". On main 476fc9be66 (2026-11-12, after "Pushed to origin/topic"):
# step 4 of STEPS-EXACT.md, main 476fc9be66, after the T3 Push (Browser panel click 2026-11-12T12:50:19Z), 2026-11-12T12:50:31Z
$ git -C ../source.git log --oneline -1 topic

$ git branch -vv

main 6fad962 [origin/main] Initial commit
$ git push --dry-run
To ../personal-fork.git
d148247..272fb88 topic -> topic
A common fork setup clones the source repository as origin, adds a personal fork, and sets remote.pushDefault=fork (or branch.<name>.pushRemote=fork). Plain git push then sends the branch to the fork and keeps pulling from origin. The GitCafe mirror setup in docs/operations/development.md works the same way: origin is git.cafe and remote.pushDefault is github.
T3 Code's Push ignores both settings once the branch tracks a same-named branch. A branch topic tracking origin/topic is pushed to origin. The commits land in the source repository instead of the fork, and the panel says "Pushed to origin/topic". Without write access to the source, Push fails even though the fork is writable.
pushCurrentBranch in apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriverCore.ts already reads these settings through resolvePushRemoteName for unpublished branches and for branches tracking their base. The same-name path skips it and always pushes to the tracked remote.
resolveConfiguredPushRemoteName returns branch.<name>.pushRemote, then remote.pushDefault, or null. resolvePushRemoteName keeps its old result: that value, else the primary remote.
On the same-name path, when a configured push remote differs from the tracked remote, Push sends HEAD to the tracked branch name on the configured remote. It does not pass -u, so the branch keeps tracking origin/topic for pulls, as plain git push does. The result names fork/topic, so the panel shows where the commits went.
When the branch already matches its tracked branch, Push fetches the push remote's branch and skips only when it already has HEAD; otherwise it pushes there.
Push & create PR uses the push destination returned by the driver to select the PR head.
The refspec stays explicit, so push.default cannot change the target branch. #788 used an explicit refspec for that reason.
The up-to-date skip and the PR head follow the same push destination, so they are part of the same fix.
Run in this order: main 7462f234e8 (newest green main when I started), this head f3a1a83cf1, and the head merged locally with that main, 3c08f13aa8 (not pushed).
Scenario, rebuilt with the same commit ids before every push: bare remotes origin and fork, topic tracking origin/topic, remote.pushDefault=fork, one new commit. Phone images are frames from screen recordings.
On main, the commit lands in origin and the fork does not get it. On the head and on the merged tree, it lands in fork, origin keeps its old commit, and topic still tracks origin/topic. All nine runs match this.
One T3 dev server per revision. Web: Git action options > Push in the T3 Browser panel. Phones run today's main app (server-only change): iPhone 17 Pro simulator, iOS 26.5, and Pixel 10 emulator, Android 16, software rendering; Git controls > Push through the Device panel.
Before, web, main 7462f234e8:

Push & create PR on a real host: at f3a1a83cf1 and on main d313b2aff3, the web client in the Browser panel ran against private GitHub test repositories, a source repository and its fork, with remote.pushDefault=fork and each branch tracking the same-named branch on origin. On main, Push and Push & create PR sent the commit to the source and opened the PR from the source's branch. On this branch, Push sent it to the fork with tracking unchanged, and Push & create PR opened the PR from the fork's branch (git state and server spans). Its main half ran on d313b2aff3, an older main than 7462f234e8.
Main d313b2a, private GitHub test repositories: Pushed to origin/ahead-m
Head f3a1a83, private GitHub test repositories: Pushed to fork/ahead-h
Tests: with this head's GitManager.test.ts and GitVcsDriverCore.test.ts on main's code, the nine push-remote and PR-head cases fail. Two older worktree tests in the head's copy also fail, because main changed that code after the head's base; main's own copies of those pass. On the head all 387 pass; on the merged tree all 416 pass.
Not checked, continued:
The earlier macOS capture was at 41cb117e48, before the merges of main.
Hosted Push & create PR from a branch that tracks a differently named branch. Local integration tests cover its base.
Ahead counts still use the tracked upstream: after a fork push they remain ahead, and Push again reports success with nothing new to send. If origin is current but fork is behind, the server can push, but the client disables Push ("No local commits to push.").
The PR lookup in git status still uses the tracked upstream: after Push & create PR to the fork, the panel does not list the new fork PR and keeps offering Push & create PR. A second click opens the existing PR, with no duplicate.

Fix cross-repo PR detection and push remote selection #788 by juliusmarminge added push-remote selection with branch.<name>.pushRemote and remote.pushDefault. This PR applies it to the tracked-branch push path, its up-to-date skip and the PR head that follows it.
feat(git): choose which remote a branch pushes to #33557 by TonybynMp4 (open) adds a push-remote selector that sets branch.<name>.pushRemote and moves the branch's tracking to the chosen remote. It does not change which remote Push uses for a branch tracking a same-named branch when remote.pushDefault is set.

A branch tracking a same-named upstream branch was always pushed to that
upstream, ignoring branch.<name>.pushRemote and remote.pushDefault. In a
fork checkout this wrote to the source repository instead of the fork.
Push to the configured remote and keep the fetch upstream, as git push does.

The push logic supports a configured push remote that differs from a branch’s tracking upstream. It can push to that remote without changing the upstream and pass the pushed ref to pull-request head resolution.

Summary
Resolve and push to configured remotes apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriverCore.ts, apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriverCore.test.ts
The push logic separates configured push remotes from the primary-remote fallback. For a distinct configured remote, it checks whether that remote contains HEAD and skips or pushes accordingly. Pushes preserve the tracking upstream. Tests cover remote selection and branch states.
Resolve the pull-request head from the pushed ref apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriver.ts, apps/server/src/git/GitManager.ts, apps/server/src/git/GitManager.test.ts
GitPushResult can include the push remote. The stacked-action flow passes the push remote and upstream branch to runPrStep, which uses that ref to resolve the pull-request head. Tests cover fork heads and tracked-branch bases.

Push now goes to the configured push remote, and an up-to-date branch is re-pushed when that remote lacks HEAD. In one narrow case the UI can still disable Push: the tracked upstream is current while the configured fork is behind. A follow-up that exposes push-destination status to the client should address it.

Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template closely. It has Problem, Change, Scope, and Verification sections. The Problem section states the bug: with a same-named tracked branch, Push ignores branch.<name>.pushRemote and remote.pushDefault and sends commits to the tracked remote. The Change section explains the fix, including the up-to-date skip and PR head selection. The Scope section frames this as a bug fix and links prior PR #788, which added the settings this path bypasses. The Verification section gives exact reproduction steps, observed before and after results on web, Android, and iOS, test counts, and a list of items not checked. The author also notes that the description states the scope of the author's own tests. The description is long and includes detail beyond the template, but it covers every required section with specific information. The template asks for a conventional commit title; the PR title is not part of the supplied context, so this cannot be verified. The template also asks for the model and harness used; the description ends with 'Generated with Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6.1 Terra in T3 Code Nightly', which satisfies that request. The Scope section does not link a tracking issue for the bug. It cites PR #788 and the reproduction, and it does not link an issue that shows the bug, which the template requests. The author gives a reason only in part: the 'Scope' text states this is a bug fix, but no issue link is provided.

Check the configured push remote before returning skipped_up_to_date.
When topic tracks upstream/topic and HEAD matches that upstream, pushCurrentBranch returns before it checks branch.topic.pushRemote or remote.pushDefault. If fork/topic is absent or behind, Push reports skipped_up_to_date and does not publish to fork/topic.
Resolve the configured destination before this return. Skip only when that destination already contains HEAD; otherwise run the configured-remote push. The existing skip behavior remains valid when the tracking and push destinations are the same. This is a pre-existing edge case that leaves the PR’s configured-remote behavior incomplete.

Push now sends a branch tracking origin/topic to the configured push
remote and keeps tracking origin. Push & create PR then resolved the PR
head from that retained tracking ref, so it asked for `topic` on the
source repository and not `<fork-owner>:topic`.
runPrStep now takes the pushed ref and, when it differs from the tracked
upstream, resolves the PR head from the push remote. Tracking, base
resolution and other callers are unchanged.

The PR conflicted with main after #33695, which moved push target selection into resolvePushDestination in GitVcsDriverCore.ts. Main still pushes a branch that has the same name as its upstream to the tracked remote, so this fix was still needed. I merged main twice with merge commits and no rebase: 306f574328, then f3a1a83cf1 for #32905.
resolvePushDestination now returns the configured push remote (branch.<name>.pushRemote or remote.pushDefault) for that case, when it differs from the upstream's remote. The tracking upstream stays the same. pushCurrentBranch pushes there and returns pushRemote, so runPrStep takes the PR head from the fork as before. resolvePushTarget and main's new default-branch guard use the same destination.
An up-to-date tracked branch still fetches the push remote's branch before skipping. My first merge commit was missing the else if that keeps tracked branches out of the no-upstream base check, so CI failed the "deleted" case. a84a698 restored it with the same change I had locally.
GitManager.test.ts kept main's new test and this PR's three tests. The three tests now use the shared fake provider and created(providerCalls). The local recorder helper was dropped because it shadowed main's created.
The second merge only conflicted with main's findPrimaryRemoteName refactor. I kept main's version and this PR's resolveConfiguredPushRemoteName.
Checks through blacksmith-check at f3a1a83cf1 with a clean tree: vp run check:changed passed format, lint, knip, typecheck (3 packages) and 461 tests in 4 files. All CI jobs passed on a84a698.
CodeRabbit's outside-diff note at GitVcsDriverCore.ts:2311 asks to expose push-remote state so the client enables Push when only the fork is behind. That is the client limitation already noted below. It needs a new status field in contracts, server and web, which would grow this server-only fix, so I left it for a follow-up. Commit, push & PR still reaches the server path.
Unverified: the real app Push flow was not re-run after these merges.

Verified the push-only fix at exact head 22568fb05815a6d78dee47f279f6a0f8c1c43403 on a Linux Boat VM. No source changes or pushes were needed.
Ran vp i and background dev servers on github/main (6575ce3250, separate worktree) and this exact head, one server at a time. Used isolated state, repo Playwright, /usr/bin/google-chrome, and real Codex gpt-6.1-sol turns through the web composer. Added the project and threads in the app. Codex created and committed the files. Git used two real local bare remotes, without mocks.

Hosted Push & create PR, including the changed GitManager head-selector path, was not exercised end to end: doing so requires creating or touching another PR, which this brief forbids. Its existing test passes, but that is not runtime proof. Hosted fork permissions, native desktop/iOS/Android, macOS/Windows, and relay/tunnel connections were not exercised.
Known pre-existing limitation reproduced: when HEAD equals the fetch upstream but the configured fork is behind, the app disables Push with No local commits to push. The fork stays behind. The client ahead-count guard and server early skip predate this diff. This verification does not claim that case is fixed.
A branch that matched its tracked upstream was reported up to date even
when its configured push remote was missing those commits, so Push left
the fork behind and the PR head came from the tracked ref. The skip now
checks the push remote's branch first and pushes when it lacks HEAD.
The push result now names the push remote it used, and the PR step takes
it from there instead of re-reading `git remote` after the push.

…date push
The up-to-date skip trusted the local refs/remotes/<pushRemote>/<branch>,
which stays stale after the fork branch is deleted or rewound elsewhere, so
Push could report success without publishing. The push-remote path now
fetches that branch and skips only when the fresh ref contains HEAD.
The check moves into the push-remote path, which already knows whether the
branch tracks its own name, so the alias test stays inline where it was.

The push-remote PR tests read the fake gh's argv to see which head and
base the PR was created with. They now pass makeManager a small provider
that records createChangeRequest, so they assert the base and head
selector directly and keep working however the default fake forge
records its calls.

The up-to-date case from CodeRabbit's review and Maria's verification is now handled on the server.
63f29e3: when a tracked branch matches its upstream and a different push remote is configured, Push checks the push remote's branch before skipping. It skips only when that branch already has HEAD. Otherwise it pushes there.
7d94105: before that check it fetches the push remote's branch, so a branch deleted or rewound on the fork since the last fetch is not skipped from a stale local ref.
Tests in GitVcsDriverCore.test.ts: pushes an up-to-date tracked branch to the push remote when its branch there is %s (absent, behind, deleted, rewound) and skips an up-to-date tracked branch the push remote already has. The absent and behind cases fail at 22568fb, and the deleted and rewound cases at 63f29e3, because the push is skipped.
Not changed here: the client still disables Push with "No local commits to push." in that state, because its ahead count compares with the tracked branch. Fixing that needs the git status contract to carry the push destination's ahead count, which is a separate client change. The PR description lists it under Not checked.
…ushing
The merge with main split the base-branch check from the tracked-branch
check, so an up-to-date tracked branch whose push-remote branch was
deleted read the stale local remote-tracking ref and skipped the push.
Only branches without an upstream reach that check again.

- Around line 2819-2821: Update the no-local-delta fallback in the push flow
around remoteRefContainsHead so it cannot use a potentially stale tracking ref
when destination is a distinct push remote; preserve the existing fallback for
ordinary upstream pushes when a comparison base exists.

At 306f574 one test fails in Test Server 6, in the original run and its re-run: GitVcsDriverCore.test.ts > remote operations > pushes an up-to-date tracked branch to the push remote when its branch there is deleted. In pushCurrentBranch, the base-branch check for branches without an upstream also ran for tracked branches. When the push remote's branch had been deleted, the fetch failed, the check read the old local fork/topic ref, which still contains HEAD, and the push was skipped.
a84a698 makes that block an else if again, so only branches without an upstream reach it. The test fails at 306f574 and passes with the fix. vp run check:changed passes. This also covers CodeRabbit's finding on the same lines.

Expose push-remote state to the client.
When the tracking upstream is current but the configured push remote is behind or deleted, aheadCount is zero. buildMenuItems disables Push for that state, so users cannot reach the new recovery path from the UI. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
Expose a separate push-destination status and use it to enable Push. Keep aheadCount for upstream divergence.

Expose a separate push-destination status from the Git status flow instead of

@maria-rcks we re-ran the real-app Push flow after your merges, at f3a1a83cf1 and on main (d313b2aff3), in a fork setup on GitHub test repositories (remote.pushDefault=fork, branch tracking origin/<branch>). With one new commit, main pushes to origin while this PR pushes to the fork and leaves the source branch and tracking unchanged, and Push & create PR, not run end to end before, now pushes to the fork and opens the PR from the fork's branch (git state and server spans). With HEAD equal to the fetch upstream, Push stays disabled and Create PR opens from the source branch on both builds, and after Push & create PR the panel doesn't list the new fork PR (a second click opens the existing one, no duplicate), because status follows the tracked upstream as with the ahead counts. Not re-run after the merges: desktop, mobile, Windows, macOS, and relay or tunnel connections.
Also give the local-upstream push destination an explicit pushRemote so
every destination has the same shape.

A tracked branch whose upstream already has HEAD skipped the push step,
so create_pr never published to the configured push remote and opened the
PR from the upstream instead. resolvePushTarget now reports when pushes go
to a distinct push remote, and create_pr runs the push step in that case.

Configured topic to track origin/topic while pushing to fork, using remote.pushDefault and branch.topic.pushRemote in separate fixtures. Added a local commit, opened each thread, and selected Git action options > Push. Real web app, Chromium 1280×800, light theme, fresh synthetic state on both commits.

Not shown:
Push & create PR and hosted fork PR-head selection were not exercised; the scenario uses local bare remotes without hosted PR support.
The case where the tracking upstream already contains HEAD but the configured push destination lacks it was not exercised; both fixtures had a local commit ahead of tracking.

Problem
A common fork setup clones the source repository as
origin, adds a personal fork, and setsremote.pushDefault=fork(orbranch.<name>.pushRemote=fork). T3 Code's Push ignores both once the branch tracks a same-named branch:topictrackingorigin/topicis pushed toorigin, so the commits land in the source repository, or Push fails without write access there.Change
On the same-name path, when a configured push remote differs from the tracked remote, Push sends
HEADto the tracked branch name on that remote without-u, as plaingit pushdoes. The up-to-date skip and Push & create PR's PR head follow the same destination.Scope
A bug fix: Push sends commits to the wrong repository. #788 added support for
branch.<name>.pushRemoteandremote.pushDefault, and this path bypasses them. No settings, defaults or UI code change.Verification
To see it on Linux web: (1) build the clone with "Exact steps" in the details:
topicmust trackorigin/topic(git push -u origin topic), thenremote.pushDefault forkand a new commit, (2) add it with Add project > Local folder, (3) Git action options > Push: main says "Pushed to origin/topic" andsource.gitgets the commit, not the fork.I ran exactly that on main
