version control - Can you prevent default-push, but allow pull?

Question

I want to know if there's a way to turn off the default push, but keep the default pull when using Mercurial. I don't want to accidentally pollute the master repository by inadvertently pushing from an experimental repository.

Answer 1

I was able to solve this by putting the following in my .hg/hgrc file, but I was wondering if there's a better/official way.

[paths]
default = http://server/hg/repo
default-push = .
