Yes, disagreement is healthy. My point is that we should have "sane" defaults, and fine-grained configurability so that uses who disagree can maintain their own configs. In this case, respecting a branch.*.remote for each branch is more fine-grained, while not doing so is coarse and makes me unhappy. Then again, we don't have to go overboard and design another ten configuration variables, but we can atleast improve on what we already have without breaking consistency (but we have to minimally break backward compatibility). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
