DESCRIPTION
-----------
You can make interesting things happen to a repository
every time you push into it, by setting up 'hooks' there. See
-documentation for gitlink:git-receive-pack[1].
+documentation for linkgit:git-receive-pack[1].
OPTIONS
+
Note: If no explicit refspec is found, (that is neither
on the command line nor in any Push line of the
-corresponding remotes file---see below), then all the
-heads that exist both on the local side and on the remote
-side are updated.
+corresponding remotes file---see below), then "matching" heads are
+pushed: for every head that exists on the local side, the remote side is
+updated if a head of the same name already exists on the remote side.
+
`tag <tag>` means the same as `refs/tags/<tag>:refs/tags/<tag>`.
+
Instead of naming each ref to push, specifies that all
refs under `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/` be pushed.
+\--mirror::
+ Instead of naming each ref to push, specifies that all
+ refs under `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/` and `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags/`
+ be mirrored to the remote repository. Newly created local
+ refs will be pushed to the remote end, locally updated refs
+ will be force updated on the remote end, and deleted refs
+ will be removed from the remote end.
+
\--dry-run::
Do everything except actually send the updates.
transfer spends extra cycles to minimize the number of
objects to be sent and meant to be used on slower connection.
--v::
+-v, \--verbose::
Run verbosely.

+OUTPUT
+------
+
+The output of "git push" depends on the transport method used; this
+section describes the output when pushing over the git protocol (either
+locally or via ssh).
+
+The status of the push is output in tabular form, with each line
+representing the status of a single ref. Each line is of the form:
+
+-------------------------------
+ <flag> <summary> <from> -> <to> (<reason>)
+-------------------------------
+
+flag::
+ A single character indicating the status of the ref. This is
+ blank for a successfully pushed ref, `!` for a ref that was
+ rejected or failed to push, and '=' for a ref that was up to
+ date and did not need pushing (note that the status of up to
+ date refs is shown only when `git push` is running verbosely).
+
+summary::
+ 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
+ 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
+ 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
+ remote end did not report the successful update of the ref
+ (perhaps because of a temporary error on the remote side, a
+ break in the network connection, or other transient error).
+
+from::
+ The name of the local ref being pushed, minus its
+ `refs/<type>/` prefix. In the case of deletion, the
+ name of the local ref is omitted.
+
+to::
+ The name of the remote ref being updated, minus its
+ `refs/<type>/` prefix.
+
+reason::
+ A human-readable explanation. In the case of successfully pushed
+ refs, no explanation is needed. For a failed ref, the reason for
+ failure is described.
