I agree with you that that would follow the principle of least surprise. On the other hand if I use git push --receive-pack='git -c receive.denyDeletes=false receive-pack' then I would expect it to work. I don't think this is a security problem because I already could have set the remote $GIT_CONFIG just as easily. -- 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
