GIT v1.6.5 Release Notes ======================== In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.5, "git push" into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository. Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by its HEAD, will be refused by default. You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository. To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a push running this release will issue a big warning when the configuration variable is missing.
