It doesn't really override it. It is applied to it, i.e. transforms it.

That is as described in the thread (thanks for linking to it).

The idea of "pushInsteadOf" was that, instead of having to define url
and pushurl separately, you can use different rules, say

github -> git://github.com (fetch)
github -> https://username@xxxxxxxxxx (push)
github/ -> git@xxxxxxxxxx: (push)

used with "url = github/otheruser/repo.git" alone, without pushurl.

pushurl predates pushinsteadof, and when the latter was introduced, one
could have argued for or against "insteadof" being applied to pushurls.
But that was necessary before, and existing behavior at the time when
pushinsteadof was introduced. So, I don't see a bug, nor anything we
could change now, though arguably most people use either pushinstead of
or pushurl, but not both.

Cheers,
Michael
