Any kind of shell history has that feature (or problem, depending on your point of view). I think it's a reasonable compromise.

That would be much more in line with the spirit of EZ> vc-next-action, IMO. Right, so the history would be per repository and the very first initial guess would be "git push" usually? I would use that. Unless there's a strong protest, I can try implementing a first cut of this. I like that it fills a void, where you say "DWIM" after a Git commit and VC goes "huh? go away!" :) EZ> Unfortunately, we don't seem to have an active maintainer of VC, in EZ> particular in the Git area, so Git support in VC remains rudimentary EZ> and at times buggy (e.g., see bug#20292, which remains without any EZ> response, let alone fix).

I use both, but VC is definitely more convenient for "smaller" interactions. Magit tends to be an all-day workflow. Ted
