-- `git rebase origin/main` - Rebase on current main
+- `git rebase origin/{{ .DefaultBranch }}` - Rebase on current main
-- `git push origin main` - Push merged changes
+- `git push origin {{ .DefaultBranch }}` - Push merged changes
 
 **IMPORTANT**: The merge queue source of truth is `gt mq list {{ .RigName }}`, NOT git branches.
 Do NOT use `git branch -r | grep polecat` or `git ls-remote | grep polecat` to check for work.
