I think "git pull" is different, because it is more often fetching from

valuable default more often than for "git push".
I think it is highly dependent on your workflow. I would have said the
exact opposite.

For example, on one project, I keep a "working" repo on my laptop where
I develop and integrate work from others. I get their work by pulling
individually from other developers. But when I push, it always goes to
one place: my "publish" repo, where the other developers will grab my
changes.

In that workflow, I pull from many different places, but always push to
one. I assumed that is actually similar to the Linus "integrator"
workflow (although I think he just does one-shot pulls without defining
remotes).
