[PATCH 5/6] remote.c: introduce remote.pushdefault

From: Ramkumar Ramachandra <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:56:33
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

This new configuration variable defines the default remote to push to,
and overrides `branch.<name>.remote` for all branches.  It is useful
in the typical triangular-workflow setup, where the remote you're
fetching from is different from the remote you're pushing to.
