I'll just mention that higher level code operations assume things about being able to append. Which means that while your code will probably work, I believe it will become quadratic if you try to push up a large branch.

1) Push up rev 1
2) Download rev 1 + push up rev 1 & 2
3) Download rev 1&2, push up rev 1-3
4) Download rev 1-3, push up rev 1-4
...
100) Download revs 1-99, push up revs 1-100

Now we do a little bit with buffering, so we should only append XX data per attempt, but I'm curious if supporting something with abysmal performance is worthwhile...
