I saw that there is a change in the way git push works in 1.7. Currently I only do simple things and a typical workflow is: git pull Make a few changes git commit -a git push
This normally does a fast forward update and avoids a merge. Is there another way I should be doing this? Does the answer change for 1.7?
Check release notes, you can configure your remote repository to use old (unsafe) behavior. http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/RelNotes-1.7.0.txt Mercurial has a similar behaviour, they recommend privileging pull over push operations because of their asymmetric natures.
I don't control the remote repository. That would be fedorahosted in the case I am asking about.
