Hey,

Is there an API endpoint for updating the number of branches/tags that can be updated in a single push?

Thanks

Hi @rudyocalan ,

As far as I know, there is no specific API endpoint for updating the number of branches/tags that can be updated in a single push on a remote Git repository. The number of branches/tags that can be updated in a single push depends on the configuration of the remote Git server.

However, you can use Git's push.default configuration to set the default push behavior. The push.default configuration determines the action Git takes when no branch is specified on the command line and no refspec is configured in the remote..push option. The default value for push.default is matching, which means Git will try to push all branches that exist on the local side and have the same name on the remote side.

You can change the value of push.default to upstream or current to limit the number of branches/tags that can be updated in a single push. For example, if you set push.default to current, Git will only push the current branch to the remote repository.

To set the value of push.default, you can use the git config command:
git config --global push.default current
