Subject: [PATCH 2/2] push: Add '--current', which pushes only the current branch

From: Steffen Prohaska <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2007 17:13:08 +0100

Often you want to push only the current branch to the default
remote.  This was awkward to do in the past.  You needed to
remember the default remote and type "git push $remote HEAD".

This commit teaches push to do this if you use '--current'.
