Hm. If I'm understanding you correctly, this still attempts to create a
new branch:
wschmidt@marlin:~/newgcc/gcc/config/rs6000$ git push --dry-run
users/wschmidt +wschmidt/builtins:users/wschmidt/builtins
Sorry, that needs to be fully qualified, as it is not under refs/heads
(and /heads/ was missing on the remote side):
+wschmidt/builtins:refs/users/wschmidt/heads/builtins
Thanks! That worked:
git push users/wschmidt
+wschmidt/builtins:refs/users/wschmidt/heads/builtins
Regarding your other suggestion, I don't like to use -f given that I've
noticed it will sometimes attempt to push other local branches as well.
But it looks to be unnecessary with this method.
Much obliged!
