Pushing back to shared repo with a different named branch

Following earlier discussions, I've setup a team repo where all heads/branches are. We have many interrelated branches so it makes sense to keep it all together. to work, we do single-branch checkouts using ssh like: cg-clone locke.catalyst.net.nz:/var/git/moodle.git#mdl-osc-ceed moodle-osc-ceed now, after a few commits, I'm ready to push back onto the branch. cg-push won't let me, and I kind of expected that. It says: $ cg-push origin cg-push: pushing to a different head not supported yet But git isn't playing ball either. What is the right incantation to tell it to push origin to where it came from. $ cat .git/branches/origin locke.catalyst.net.nz:/var/git/moodle.git#mdl-osc-ceed git-push-script origin error: remote ref 'refs/heads/master' is not a strict subset of local ref 'refs/heads/master'. error: remote ref 'refs/heads/origin' is not a strict subset of local ref 'refs/heads/origin'. I am not using the 'remotes' setup, because I want to avoid too much setup of each repo/working copy. Is there a simple way of doing this? cheers, martin
