OK, I didn't understand you meant patching Git itself for that. So it makes sense to turn my toy patch into a real patch I guess. Any comment on the capability name? I used dont-update-private, which is a bit long. The actual precise name would be dont-update-private-for-push, but that's really long. Any better idea? Just to be sure: you originally wrote "update the remote namespace only when a certain feature has been flagged". My patch differs in two ways: it's opt-out, not opt-in, and it's about updating the _private_ namespace, not the remote.
