399+ ## Challenge: Two different push commands
400+
401+ The first time we pushed our changes, we used a longer command:
402+
403+ ``` bash
404+ $ git push -u origin main
405+ ```
406+
407+ The second time, we used a shorter command:
408+
409+ ``` bash
410+ $ git push
411+ ```
412+
413+ Why didn't we use the same command both times?
414+
415+ ::::::::::::::::: solution
416+
417+ The first time, Git didn't know where to push the changes, so we had to tell it the destination to use.
418+ We also used the ` -u ` flag to tell Git to remember that decision.
419+
420+ The second time, Git knew a destination it could use, so we didn't specify one;
421+ not only did we save on typing, we also avoided worries about typing the wrong destination.
