Git commits a single file and pushes it to a remote
This article outlines the steps to push a single file to a remote repository. You may find yourself with dozens of changed files in your working tree and only need to push that one file to the remote.
If you are not sure how to do this, this is the right place.
Commit a single file and push it to the remote
For simpler context, let's look at the following example.
Assuming the above image represents the state of our workspace, how can we push only the untracked myfile.js file?
First, we have to commit the files. We will first add the files to the index using the git add command as shown below.
$ git add myfile.js
Then we can submit the file.
$ git commit -m "Push single file"
All that's left is to push the files to the remote repository. We will use the git push command.
$ git push origin master
请注意, Git will only push committed changes.
Before you can push a single file to a remote repository, you must commit the file first. Remember, Git will only push committed changes to the remote.
