Then when you later connect to the net, you can merge the new changes in .git into the remote emacs repository on savannah (using "git push"). It sounds like "git push" is the real analogue of CVS commit, and that this is the closest match-up between the concepts of git and the concepts of CVS: CVS GIT save file = commit commit = pull or push But I still don't understand what step actually alters the trunk that users will get by default from the public repository. Does `push' do that? If not `push', then what?
