Feature request:

I believe making a new command, "Commit and Push" in a single operation would be very useful in several circumstances:

1) Faster - when you have a change that has to go to a central repository immediately, it would be quicker to do this in one step than in two.
2) Attract users from a central repository background (CVS, SVN), making the transition to Git a little easier.

Whenever I try to convince colleagues to try Git, they always hate the fact that it takes two steps to commit a file. Usually, they don't get past this problem and won't even try Git.

One of the principles on which Git was built is that it should allow for various different workflows. This command would allow for the completely Centralised workflow which is still a very popular workflow, and wouldn't impact on those of us who like to take advantage of Git's distributed nature.
