PATCH 1/1 git-gui: Teach start_push_anywhere_action{} to notice when remote is a mirror.

When the destination repository is a mirror, this function goofed by still passing a refspec to git-push. Now it notices that the remote is a mirror and holds the refspec.

---

This patch stops git-gui from annoying git-push when the remote is a mirror. A further enhancement would be to disable the branch names list in the dialog when the selected destination is a mirror. As it stands, you can select a branch name from the list but it will be ignored (this could possibly confuse/annoy people). But that's a bunch more work so I'm stopping here for now.

Thanks.

Yea, it is a chunk of work. I thought about trying to do it myself right now, but realized I won't be able to do it in 15 minutes and gave up. :-)

Unfortunately this patch adds a new string to be translated and I've already made a request for the translators to update their languages, and several have. I'll send out another request to let them know there's this new string; we should have enough time before 1.6.1 goes final.

Hi Shawn,

Well, when you/someone looks at updating the push dialog you could consider adding another checkbox that disables the refspec so that the push uses whatever default refspec has been configured. I think that would be a useful addition.

Cheers,
