My git is outdated on my development server, 1.5.6.5:
--mirror
Instead of naming each ref to push, specifies that all refs
under $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/ and $GIT_DIR/refs/tags/ be mirrored to the
remote repository. Newly created
local refs will be pushed to the remote end, locally updated
refs will be force updated on the remote end, and deleted refs will be
removed from the remote end.
This is the default if the configuration option
remote.<remote>.mirror is set.
So, it's a bug in the docs in 1.5.6.5.
This behavior makes no sense to me. Can we at least add a config option
to make it not push remotes? I push my development repository
to a remote private repository only as a backup, and push my master/next
to a public repository. I see no reason to push my 8 remotes and
all their branches to my backup repository.
