Pearce" Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 23:25:25 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Correct documentation for git-push --mirror This option behaves more like: git push $url +refs/*:refs/* than it does like: git push $url +refs/heads/*:refs/heads/* +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/* so we should document it to be more clear about that.
