Subject: push from git gui goes to wrong branch
Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2010 15:09:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201012201509.22236.dexen.devries@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,


there's a behavior in git gui (v1.7.3.2 and previous) that I consider bugous. 
Failed to find any bugreporting system on git's website so I'm reporting it 
here; please correct me if that's wrong.

I have the following snippet in my .git/config:
[branch "article"]
	remote = baron
	merge = refs/heads/dexen-article

However, the `Push' button from git gui sends local branch `article' to remote 
branch `article', rather than to the indicated `dexen-article'.

For reference, with the CLI `git push', the local branch `article' is pushed 
to remote branch `dexen-article' as expected.


Regards,
