Hm? I'm confused, as mirror isn't compatible with refspecs: $ git push github master^:master error: --mirror can't be combined with refspecs > Perhaps removing remote.github.fetch would be one sane way forward. Ahh -- I see. The repository predates a9f5a355, which split `git remote add --mirror` into `--mirror=push` and `--mirror=fetch`, because of more or less this exact problem. Of course, there is nothing much that can be done for existing repositories in this situation as it's a legitimate combination. - Alex -- 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
