The question does not pertain to master being mapped to next; it pertains to central-workflow versus triangular-workflow: origin versus ram. If the user has set push.default to upstream, she _expects_ triangular pushes to always be denied, and this is the first violation of that rule. I'm tilting towards building a dependency between branch.<name>.push and push.default. -- 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
