Thus "git push <remote>" overrides "branch.*.remote". But in this case there are actually _three_ layers: command line, branch.*.push, and now push.default. I think a name like "push.mode" doesn't make clear the fact that it will never be looked at if you have "branch.*.push" set up. I think you have a point that "default" is vague, but "defaultMode" would be better than simply "mode". -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
