"This something I’ve been using for quite a while without bad consequences and suggested by Linus Torvalds on the git mailing list. araqnid’s solution is the proper one for bringing code into your repository… but when you, like me, have multiple equivalent authoritative upstreams (I keep some of my more critical projects cloned to both a private upstream, GitHub, and Codaset), it can be a pain to push changes to each one, every day. Long story short, git remote add all of your remotes individually… and then git config -e and add a merged‐remote. Assuming you have this repository config: [remote "GitHub"] url = [email protected]:elliottcable/Paws.o.git fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/GitHub/* [branch "Master"] remote = GitHub merge = refs/heads/Master [remote "Codaset"] url = [email protected]:elliottcable/paws-o.git fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/Codaset/* [remote "Paws"] url = [email protected]:Paws/Paws.o.git fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/Paws/* … to create a merged‐remote for "Paws" and "Codaset", I can add the following after all of those: [remote "Origin"] url = [email protected]:Paws/Paws.o.git url = [email protected]:elliottcable/paws-o.git Once I’ve done this, when I git push Origin Master, it will push to both Paws/Master and Codaset/Master sequentially, making life a little easier." #@to_do #simple #git #hacks #good_to_know #version_control #pub
