Sorry, do you mean that you stay on a single branch, and then you
would pull from one place with "git pull -u" followed by "git push"
to push back there, and repeat that for other places, practically
redefining the meaning of the "upstream" to "the last remote
repository I pulled from and I am supposed to push to that remote
and nowhere else in my workflow"?
