Note that this has to further change if Ram's triangular push fix comes before 2.0. I am not sure if these original two lines are necessary. Wouldn't it more appropriate to just drop the "Without additional configuration" and go straight to "The default behaviour of this command..."? > Documentation/git-push.txt | 6 ++++-- > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/Documentation/git-push.txt b/Documentation/git-push.txt > index 9b9e7d1..81b875b 100644 > --- a/Documentation/git-push.txt > +++ b/Documentation/git-push.txt > @@ -381,8 +381,10 @@ Examples > configured for the current branch). > > `git push origin`:: > - Without additional configuration, works like > - `git push origin :`. > + Without additional configuration, pushes the current branch to > + the configured upstream (`remote.origin.merge` configuration > + variable) if it has the same name as the current branch, and > + errors out without pushing otherwise. > + > The default behavior of this command when no is given can be > configured by setting the `push` option of the remote, or the `push.default` ``` ## Matthieu Moy, 2013-06-17 20:48 Subject: Re: [PATCH] fixup! push: switch default from "matching" to "simple" Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/vpqy5a8wjjw.fsf%40anie.imag.fr In-Reply-To: <7vhagwcyqf.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> ``` Junio C Hamano writes: > Note that this has to further change if Ram's triangular push fix > comes before 2.0. I didn't follow precisely this topic. In any case, better have this in the patch, if only as a reminder that this part will need to be updated. > I am not sure if these original two lines are necessary.

I think it makes sense to avoid having to go through too many sections to understand the default behavior. Right now, to know what "git push" does, the reader reads the DESCRIPTION and finds nothing, reads the ... part and does not see what happens when it's omitted, then see the EXAMPLE section git push => see git push origin git push origin => see push.default in git config --help At least, keeping these lines, we avoid the last indirection. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ ```
