A question: Where to ask/report problems with that?

We're currently running into problems that egit doesn't push to where
git would when the local and remote branches aren't the same name. It
seems that egit ignores the branch.*.merge settings. Or push.default?

EGit developers have a bug tracker, from:

  http://eclipse.org/egit/support/

We see File a bug with a link to:

  
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=EGitrep_platform=Allop_sys=All

I think this is just missing code in EGit. Its probable they already
know about it, or many of them don't use these features in .git/config
and thus don't realize they are missing.
