Well, a tool like git-annex is not the primary audience to choose the default behaviour for "git push" without configuration. Instead of instructing "to push *once*", you can easily instruct to install remote.$name.push that covers the primary and subsidiary branches. Alternatively "git annex push" could drive the underlying "git push" in whatever way it wishes. Notice a branch is being pushed, and then add its subsidiary branch to the set of refs to be pushed (because it, not Git, is the one who knows the correspondence between the primary branch and the subsidiary branch). -- 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
