Yes, that's already been covered in this thread, probably in the  
first or second post, and (at least I hope) we've all read it and  
take it as given.

Replace "push all branches" with "push all refs that both sides have  
in common", which is presumably what Karl meant, and the concerns are  
still there.

How is this comment supposed to help in any way? Please try to think  
about the image you're putting across; as an relatively active and  
prominent contributer in the Git community you are part of the "face"  
of the community.
