Of course it can't guess all cases. But right now you have the option of: 1. specifying the full destination manually 2. having git complain, and then doing (1) I think changing (2) to "having git make a reasonable guess" is a better behavior. And I think it is a reasonable guess to use the _same_ type, just as we do with "git push <branch>". -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
