The method org.eclipse.jgit.transport.Transport.push(...) does not update the index and the working tree of the remote repo on the local file system. Is this the intended behaviour?

I checked https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitFaq#Why_won.27t_I_see_changes_in_the_remote_repo_after_.22git_push.22.3F and found:

The push operation is always about propagating the repository history and updating the refs, and never touches the working tree files. 

Therefore I close the bug.
