If you think about your interaction with people who are only looking at "repo1" alone, you _are_ using a centralized workflow. You are not the only one who update their 'master'; other people push there to update that 'master' and you pull it in to keep you up to date and further build your changes on top. Such an interaction with other people by using repo1 as the shared meeting point is well served by the push-to-upstream mechanism, and that kind of interaction is called "centralized workflow". The illustration from you is running one centralized workflow with each of the three repositories. The de-centralized workflow the message hints (but does not talk about) is different. It is not uncommon to pull from one place and then to push the result out to your own publishing branch (e.g. clone from anna, fetch to keep up to date with her, work on it, publish to your repository to tell her to fetch from you), and push-to-upstream is not very well suited for that topology. You may clone her "for-bob" branch, but you do not push it back to her repository to update her "for-bob" branch. -- 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
