How to config git to pull from http and push through ssh in one 'remote'?

From the git-config man page:

remote.<name>.url The URL of a remote repository. See git-fetch(1) or git-push(1).

remote.<name>.pushurl The push URL of a remote repository. See git-push(1).

Try setting the former to an http: url and the latter to a git+ssh: (or just git:) url?

Original answer, for push through ssh in one 'remote': this applies only to one repo, the current one:

If you have a git remote -v which returns an https URL for "origin", you can type:

git config remote.origin.pushurl git@github.com:aUser/aRepo

Or rather:

git remote set-url --push git@github.com:aUSer/aRepo

As noted here:

It is not functionally different, as set-url internally ends up just calling config. But set-url will complain if you mistype the command part "git remote set-url --push", whereas git config will silently accept mistyped options, but fail to actually set the remote's url.

See git-reference (here adapted):

$ git remote -vorigin  https://github.com/schacon/git-reference.git (fetch)origin  https://github.com/schacon/git-reference.git (push)$ git remote set-url --push origin git@github.com:schacon/git-reference.git$ git remote -vorigin  https://github.com/schacon/git-reference.git (fetch)origin  git@github.com:schacon/git-reference.git (push)

In the context of the bounty, jww adds:

I want this to apply to all of github.com, and not just my repos

Then git remote is not the answer.

Only url.<base>.pushInsteadOf would apply to all repos:

Any URL that starts with this value will not be pushed to; instead, it will be rewritten to start with , and the resulting URL will be pushed to. I

So:

 git config --global url."git@github.com:".pushInsteadOf https://github.com/ # or git config --global url."ssh://git@github.com/".pushInsteadOf https://github.com/

I mentioned that option in 2014 in "Git: how to get the public, read-only git:// URL".

The --global option will make that applied to all repos, not just the current one.
