I agree its odd, but is it really true that one (I) shouldn't be doing it?
Can I tell you what I'm doing, and check that it's not crazy...
I have my laptop and my desktop computer; I use both for development. I've
set them so that they are symmetric...
laptop:.git/config
[remote "desktop"]
url = ssh://blah blah blah
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/desktop/*
push = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/*
desktop:.git/config
[remote "laptop"]
url = ssh://blah blah blah
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/*
push = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/desktop/*
This is very handy, as git-push on one does the same as git-fetch on the
other. Have I made a glaring mistake by pushing to a remote ref?
