FWIW, I do this without a third server (and without resorting to pull), with: host1$ git push host2 master:refs/remotes/host1/master host2$ git merge host1/master You can even set up a push refspec to make "git push host2" do the right thing. That being said, I do like the premise of your patch, as it eliminates the extra step on the remote side (which is not that big a deal in itself, but when you realize that host2 _did_ have some changes on it, then you end up doing the merge there, when in general I'd prefer to do all the work on host1 via "git pull"). -Peff -- 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
