I haven't used it myself but search this list and you'll find plenty of references. (disclaimer: the following is what I think you can do based on some vague recollection and some man pages) Taking a quick look at the git push --help you'll see the following snippet of configuration. [remote "<name>"] url = <url> pushurl = <pushurl> push = <refspec> fetch = <refspec> so I think if you just add the pushurl to your .git/config should do what you've asked [remote "origin"] fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git pushurl = git://git.example.com/yourrepo.git For your own sanity I suggest doing this by adding your repository as a separate remote. e.g. git remote add yourrepo git://git.example.com/yourrepo.git git push yourrepo master:refs/heads/master # the first time git push yourrepo # subsequent times There probably is a way to tell push to use something other than "origin" by default but I don't know/can't find it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
