Re: [PATCH] git push --track

Hi,

generally, it would be better if you could add some tests for this.

If I'm not wrong, the place to put it would be t5516-fetch-push.sh.

Each patch should be sent out in its own mail. (As Matthieu has
recommended, you should check out Documentation/SubmittingPatches.)

It would be better if you can move this to
transport.c::transport_push(). It repeats what's already there, so you
don't have to configure match_flags, nor call match_refs, etc.

In most places, this is done like this:

  struct ref* ref;
  for (ref = remote_refs; ref; ref = ref->next) {
    ...
  }
