OK, I didn't understand you meant patching Git itself for that. So it
makes sense to turn my toy patch into a real patch I guess. Any comment
on the capability name? I used dont-update-private, which is a bit long.
The actual precise name would be dont-update-private-for-push, but
that's really long. Any better idea?

Just to be sure: you originally wrote "update the remote namespace only
when a certain feature has been flagged". My patch differs in two ways:
it's opt-out, not opt-in, and it's about updating the _private_
namespace, not the remote. Any comment on what's the best behavior?
