And I have no clue about the push version. The file is editable! You can have both Push: and Pull: lines for a remote there. Or have I misunderstood your question here? jdl ``` ## Adr3nal D0S, 2008-06-30 19:52 Subject: Re: Multiple remote.<...>.fetch and .push patterns Message-ID: <308083c30806301252l25f072anafbc457f48c6b19e@mail.gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/308083c30806301252l25f072anafbc457f48c6b19e%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: <48693434.4090402@freescale.com> ``` In reference to my question about .git/remotes/ko, Jon Loeliger wrote: > You can have both Push: and Pull: lines for a remote there. > > Or have I misunderstood your question here? I know that I can create files in .git/remotes that look like Linus' ko sample. But I was wondering if this could be done with git-config. I have some developers that are new to SCMs in general and git in particular. They are a little nervous playing in the git directory. Also, I was uncertain how settings in .git/remotes files interact with git-config ...fetch and ...push settings, if at all. ``` ## Michael J Gruber, 2008-07-01 09:00 Subject: Re: Multiple remote.<...>.fetch and .push patterns Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/g4croa%243eu%241%40ger.gmane.org In-Reply-To: <308083c30806301252l25f072anafbc457f48c6b19e@mail.gmail.com> ``` Adr3nal D0S venit, vidit, dixit 30.06.2008 21:52: > In reference to my question about .git/remotes/ko, Jon Loeliger > wrote: > >> You can have both Push: and Pull: lines for a remote there. >> >> Or have I misunderstood your question here? > > I know that I can create files in .git/remotes that look like Linus' > ko sample.

The files under remotes are the old way of configuring remotes (see git help push). The new are config lines in the remotes section, as written by "git remote". I don't think "git remote" can write the lines you want, so I'd suggest: git config remote.ko.url kernel.org:/pub/scm/git/git.git git config remote.ko.fetch refs/heads/master:refs/tags/ko-master git config --add remote.ko.fetch refs/heads/next:refs/tags/ko-next git config --add remote.ko.fetch refs/heads/maint:refs/tags/ko-maint You can add similar lines for push with the key remote.ko.push. Note that you have to use "--add" if you want to have multiple lines for the same key in config. Also, you can add a "+" in front of the refspec, but I'm a bit surprised you want that on pushing to ko.

OK, that would make it ko/workers above ;) Seriously: I found the info about those config keys in "git-push.1"; it's also in "git-{pull,fetch}.1". I would expect that info to be in "git-{remote,config}.1". The latter points to it, the former not really.

And I have no clue about the push version. remote..fetch in config is equivalent of "Pull:" line in $GIT_DIR/remotes/, while remote..push in config is eqiovalent of "Push:" line in $GIT_DIR/remotes/. -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git ```
