insteadOf strings match a given URL, the longest match is used.
+url.<base>.pushInsteadOf::
+ Any URL that starts with this value will not be pushed to;
+ instead, it will be rewritten to start with <base>, and the
+ resulting URL will be pushed to. In cases where some site serves
+ a large number of repositories, and serves them with multiple
+ access methods, some of which do not allow push, this feature
+ allows people to specify a pull-only URL and have git
+ automatically use an appropriate URL to push, even for a
+ never-before-seen repository on the site. When more than one
+ pushInsteadOf strings match a given URL, the longest match is
+ used. If a remote has an explicit pushurl, git will ignore this
+ setting for that remote.
