I just wonder how to push a change to remote repositiory. According to a video and the documentation, after commit a blue bar shout appear where a „Push“ button is located. This blue bar doesn’t appear at my side. Is there somthing additional to configure (e.g. remote URL)?

Assuming you followed this process - the push button should appear:
1. Create your remote repo
2. Clone remote repo locally
3. Link to local repo
4. Make some commits
Now you should have a push button.
However, if you have just done the following:
1. Created a local repo without a remote
2. Linked to S~QL Source Control
3. Made some commits
In this scenario you will not see a push buttong because SQL Source Control does not know any information about your remote repo.
Bottom line - you need to set up your remote repo outside of SQL Source Control. Once this is set up, SQL Source Control will be able to push to it.
A test: Can you run the following from the command prompt?:
C:/your/repo> git push
If you can, and you have some commits locally that have not yet been pushed to the remote, SQL Source Control should display a push button in the "Commit" tab. However, if that command does not work, you should not expect SQL Source Control to work either.
