Earlier, Peff taught "git fetch origin master" to update a
remote-tracking branch by internally mapping the colon-less refspec
'master' to '+refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master'. Both
git fetch origin
git fetch origin master
would update the same refs/remotes/origin/master, which avoids
surprises.
However, we did not have a similar refspec mapping on the push
side. This three-patch series does just that, and would help
triangular workflow by making these two:
git checkout master && git push origin
git push origin master
update the same ref at the 'origin'.
Junio C Hamano (3):
builtin/push.c: use strbuf instead of manual allocation
push: use remote.$name.push as a refmap
push: also use "upstream" mapping when pushing a single ref
