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.
