I do not think that is a right approach. To please both camps without forcing people to (1) change what they are used to, and (2) type overlong command line, I think the traditional "matching refs by default", combined with "'git push HEAD' defaults to pushing the current branch to the default location" would be a well balanced compromise. - 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
