The object referenced by <src> is used to update the <dst> reference
on the remote side, but by default this is only allowed if the
-update can fast forward <dst>. By having the optional leading `{plus}`,
+update can fast-forward <dst>. By having the optional leading `{plus}`,
you can tell git to update the <dst> ref even when the update is not a
-fast forward. This does *not* attempt to merge <src> into <dst>. See
+fast-forward. This does *not* attempt to merge <src> into <dst>. See
EXAMPLES below for details.

`tag <tag>` means the same as `refs/tags/<tag>:refs/tags/<tag>`.
Pushing an empty <src> allows you to delete the <dst> ref from
the remote repository.

directs git to push "matching" branches: for every branch that exists on
the local side, the remote side is updated if a branch of the same name
already exists on the remote side. This is the default operation mode
if the configuration option `remote.<remote>.mirror` is
set.

--dry-run::
Do everything except actually send the updates.
--verbose::
Run verbosely.

OUTPUT
For a successfully pushed ref, the summary shows the old and new
values of the ref in a form suitable for using as an argument to
`git log` (this is `<old>..<new>` in most cases, and
- `<old>...<new>` for forced non-fast forward updates). For a
+ `<old>...<new>` for forced non-fast-forward updates). For a
failed update, more details are given for the failure.
The string `rejected` indicates that git did not try to send the
- ref at all (typically because it is not a fast forward). The
+ ref at all (typically because it is not a fast-forward). The
string `remote rejected` indicates that the remote end refused
the update; this rejection is typically caused by a hook on the
remote side. The string `remote failure` indicates that the
git push origin {plus}dev:master::
