Apologise, it seems my comment has been highly misleading (I'm not a native 
english speaker as you might have noticed).

What I liked to express when I said 'Jasons repo' is the one main repo where he 
(and of course the other maven committers) can push to. I should have been 
using the term 'maven main repo' instead. It was ment as an opposite example to 
a personal repo with 'experimental stuff'. And as an XP lover, I consider _all_ 
things which are not being reviewed by a 2nd person experimental ;)

Fact is: git offers a lot of different ways to work with, and we should have a 
common understanding of how we like it to be used.
