Hyup, hyup is often spelled "giddyap." I think it's the same word, but
the actual sound when yelled isn't giddyap in my experience.

There are distinct loud vowels in addressing a team - an "ah" sound
for turning left (haw), an "ee" sound for turning right (gee), and
an "uh" or long "i" sound in "hyup" or "hiy."
