I might well be wrong here, but I think the most common usage for git-push is to update a public repository, which is done by one or just a few maintainer(s), in which case it is no problem to enforce localhead=remotehead. BTW, this whole multihead mess applies only to Jeffs anyway :-) I just do not see a high demand for mappings of remote and local HEAD names, but rather a high potential of making mistakes (after all, it is not the machine which makes mistakes, it's the human operator). > If you want the holes in your knowledge showing up try teaching > someone. -- Alan Cox I like that one.
