You are throwing away the very advantage of a > DVCS. Isn't it clear, after all the flood of the messages, that Richard has no use for those advantages? Why cannot he have a VC feature, which should be optional, to do what he want under certain circumstances and given specific customizations? This _is_ Emacs, after all, isn't it? Why won't people in this thread stop trying to educate others, and start being more helpful? I think we need to identify a pattern suitable for "C-x v v" for a workflow of simple changes where a commit leads to a push that pushes only that one commit. I'm not sure it should as simple as a push following a commit, and even if it is, "C-x v v" should handle the potential rejection of the push. But given that we do identify a suitable pattern, and provide a user option to activate it, I see nothing wrong in having "C-x v v" follow it; I think that would suit Richard needs.
