Of course, it's too late too change now, but it would be nice if the
mirror of "fetch" were "send". (I know it's been commented in the  
past
that the fact that "push" and "pull" aren't mirror operations has
surprised quite a few people.)
Could you please just do

	git config --global alias.send push

and be done with it?

The comment was about how to avoid surprises for people that
are new to git, not how to let long-time users have an alias
for push.
Exactly. I was talking about the *initial* surprise for new users, not  
for people who already know the difference between push, pull and  
fetch (99% of people reading this list already, myself included).
The _only_ real solution I see right now, is to stop the
discussion and leave "git push" as is. I strongly believe that
the git community in its majority will refuse to rename push;
though I have no evidence for this.
As I said above, "Of course, it's too late to change now"... I don't  
think it will be renamed either.

Cheers,
Wincent
