Presumably the push --track option would be used with an explicit branch
name given to push anyway, right? Then it can use that info to set up
the tracking flexibly (and with sane defaults).
E.g.,, simple case:
git push --track SOME_REMOTE BRANCH_NAME
complex case:
git push --track SOME_REMOTE MY-BRANCH:REMOTE-BRANCH
Yes, git push --track ... would typically do the same thing to the
config as git checkout -b MY-BRANCH SOME_REMOTE/REMOTE-BRANCH, which
is enough for push --tracking to do its thing.
I am not sure if you mean that git push --track could do something
extra to make --tracking unecessary for git push, currently it cannot
do that since the push configuration is per remote, not per branch.
Hmm, now I'm confused... I was just thinking about --track, but am not
sure what --tracking is ... need to go grovel past posts...
