history
Project history and usage
git-multipush is a small Git extension for pushing one branch to several remotes with one command. Its README frames the tool around a 2010 multi-forge workflow, naming GitHub, Gitorious, and repo.or.cz as examples of places where the same repository might be hosted.
Project history
Gavin Beatty published git-multipush as a POSIX shell-oriented Git subcommand with a generated manpage and a traditional Makefile install path. GitHub records the repository creation on 2010-02-04, and the README copyright and first tag both point to 2010 as the initial public period.
Adoption history
The project stayed niche, but it entered Homebrew as a formula, which made it easy for macOS and Linuxbrew users to install a Git extension that otherwise followed a classic source-install workflow. GitHub metadata records a small public audience rather than broad ecosystem adoption.
How it is used
Practitioners use git-multipush when they maintain the same branch on several Git remotes. The command can push to explicit remotes, save per-branch remote lists in Git config, print configured remotes, run dry runs, and choose whether a failed push stops the whole operation or is reported after other pushes have been attempted.
Why package nerds care
The package is a snapshot of early distributed-forge Git habits: before one forge dominated many workflows, developers often mirrored projects across several hosts. As a package, it is interesting because it wraps Git config and git-push without adding a service dependency.
Timeline
- 2010: Repository and first public tag appeared on GitHub.
- 2010: v2.3 and v2.4 release-candidate tags followed during early iteration.
- 2020: Repository activity included a push after the early release period.
