Git Setup Upstream

Renames the origin remote to upstream so the template repo is preserved as the upstream remote — the user is then free to add their own origin later. This is step 10 of kappmaker create exposed as a standalone command, designed for the "fork from template" workflow.

Command: kappmaker git setup-upstream [path]

kappmaker git setup-upstream                    # Run from inside the cloned repo
kappmaker git setup-upstream ./MyApp-All        # Or pass the path explicitly

Arguments

Argument	Description	Default
[path]	Path to the repo root	Current directory

Behavior

Runs git remote rename origin upstream against the given repo root. Exits non-zero if the path isn't a git repository.

Typical Use

After kappmaker clone (or a manual git clone), in the cloned repo:

kappmaker git setup-upstream
git remote add origin git@github.com:your-username/your-app.git
git push -u origin main

The full kappmaker create command runs this automatically as step 10.
