The <src> is often the name of the branch you would want to push, but
it can be any arbitrary "SHA-1 expression", such as `master~4` or
-`HEAD` (see linkgit:gitrevisions[1]).
+`HEAD` (see linkgit:gitrevisions[7]).
+
The <dst> tells which ref on the remote side is updated with this
push. Arbitrary expressions cannot be used here, an actual ref must
is specified. This flag forces progress status even if the
standard error stream is not directed to a terminal.
+--recurse-submodules=check::
+ Check whether all submodule commits used by the revisions to be
+ pushed are available on a remote tracking branch. Otherwise the
+ push will be aborted and the command will exit with non-zero status.

OUTPUT
Examples
--------
-git push::
+`git push`::
Works like `git push <remote>`, where <remote> is the
current branch's remote (or `origin`, if no remote is
configured for the current branch).
-git push origin::
+`git push origin`::
Without additional configuration, works like
`git push origin :`.
+
the ones in the examples below) can be configured as the default for
`git push origin`.
-git push origin :::
+`git push origin :`::
Push "matching" branches to `origin`. See
<refspec> in the <<OPTIONS,OPTIONS>> section above for a
description of "matching" branches.
-git push origin master::
+`git push origin master`::
Find a ref that matches `master` in the source repository
(most likely, it would find `refs/heads/master`), and update
the same ref (e.g. `refs/heads/master`) in `origin` repository
with it. If `master` did not exist remotely, it would be
created.
-git push origin HEAD::
+`git push origin HEAD`::
A handy way to push the current branch to the same name on the
remote.
-git push origin master:satellite/master dev:satellite/dev::
+`git push origin master:satellite/master dev:satellite/dev`::
Use the source ref that matches `master` (e.g. `refs/heads/master`)
to update the ref that matches `satellite/master` (most probably
`refs/remotes/satellite/master`) in the `origin` repository, then
do the same for `dev` and `satellite/dev`.
-git push origin HEAD:master::
+`git push origin HEAD:master`::
Push the current branch to the remote ref matching `master` in the
`origin` repository. This form is convenient to push the current
branch without thinking about its local name.
-git push origin master:refs/heads/experimental::
+`git push origin master:refs/heads/experimental`::
Create the branch `experimental` in the `origin` repository
by copying the current `master` branch. This form is only
needed to create a new branch or tag in the remote repository when
the local name and the remote name are different; otherwise,
the ref name on its own will work.
-git push origin :experimental::
+`git push origin :experimental`::
Find a ref that matches `experimental` in the `origin` repository
(e.g. `refs/heads/experimental`), and delete it.
-git push origin {plus}dev:master::
+`git push origin {plus}dev:master`::
Update the origin repository's master branch with the dev branch,
allowing non-fast-forward updates. *This can leave unreferenced
commits dangling in the origin repository.* Consider the
and so would be unreachable. As such, these commits would be removed by
a `git gc` command on the origin repository.
