Is this somehow different from rpush/rpull aside from using an

Deathmatch! 

Anyway, I have to admit that at least as far as I'm concerned, the 
rpull/rpush thing has the same issues as Jason's code - I've not seen the 
usage documented anywhere, and that's the only real reason I don't use it 
myself.

Also, just out of interest, do either or both of these things pipeline the
transfer?

Me, I want to have a fairly simple script that does the equivalent of what
I do now for pushing:

	rsync -av --delete --exclude-from=.exclude .git/ master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

except I'd want it to do the locking and the "only accept trivial pushes" 
stuff (ie no merging, just a pure update).

Maybe git-rpush does this already, and I just never realized.
