+If `git push [<repository>]` without any `<refspec>` argument is set to
+update some ref at the destination with `<src>` with
+`remote.<repository>.push` configuration variable, `:<dst>` part can
+be omitted---such a push will update a ref that `<src>` normally updates

The object referenced by <src> is used to update the <dst> reference
on the remote side. By default this is only allowed if <dst> is not
already exists on the remote side.
--all::
- Instead of naming each ref to push, specifies that all
- refs under `refs/heads/` be pushed.

--prune::
Remove remote branches that don't have a local counterpart. For example
Push all the refs that would be pushed without this option,
and also push annotated tags in `refs/tags` that are missing
from the remote but are pointing at commit-ish that are

+ with configuration variable 'push.followTags'. For more
+ information, see 'push.followTags' in linkgit:git-config[1].
+
+
+--signed::
+ GPG-sign the push request to update refs on the receiving
+ side, to allow it to be checked by the hooks and/or be
+ logged. See linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] for the details
+ on the receiving end.
+
+--[no-]atomic::
+ Use an atomic transaction on the remote side if available.
+ Either all refs are updated, or on error, no refs are updated.
+ If the server does not support atomic pushes the push will fail.

--repo=<repository>::
- This option is only relevant if no <repository> argument is
- passed in the invocation. In this case, 'git push' derives the
- remote name from the current branch: If it tracks a remote
- branch, then that remote repository is pushed to. Otherwise,
- the name "origin" is used. For this latter case, this option
- can be used to override the name "origin". In other words,

`git push origin`::
- Without additional configuration, works like
- `git push origin :`.
+ Without additional configuration, pushes the current branch to

The default behavior of this command when no <refspec> is given can be
configured by setting the `push` option of the remote, or the `push.default`
