 329 <div class="para"><p><strong>NOTE</strong>: This command is temporarily disabled if your libcurl

 339 <dd>
 340 <p>
 341         Do not assume that the remote repository is complete in its
 342         current state, and verify all objects in the entire local
 343         ref's history exist in the remote repository.

 347 --force

 350 <p>
 351         Usually, the command refuses to update a remote ref that
 352         is not an ancestor of the local ref used to overwrite it.
 353         This flag disables the check.  What this means is that
 354         the remote repository can lose commits; use it with
 355         care.

 383         Remove &lt;ref&gt; from remote repository.  The specified branch
 384         cannot be the remote HEAD.  If -d is specified the following
 385         other conditions must also be met:

 416 <div class="sectionbody">
 417 <div class="para"><p>A <em>&lt;ref&gt;</em> specification can be either a single pattern, or a pair
 418 of such patterns separated by a colon ":" (this means that a ref name
 419 cannot have a colon in it).  A single pattern <em>&lt;name&gt;</em> is just a
 420 shorthand for <em>&lt;name&gt;:&lt;name&gt;</em>.</p></div>
 421 <div class="para"><p>Each pattern pair consists of the source side (before the colon)
 422 and the destination side (after the colon).  The ref to be
 423 pushed is determined by finding a match that matches the source
 424 side, and where it is pushed is determined by using the
 425 destination side.</p></div>
 426 <div class="ilist"><ul>
 427 <li>
 428 <p>
 429 It is an error if &lt;src&gt; does not match exactly one of the
 430    local refs.

 445 <p>
 446 &lt;src&gt; == &lt;dst&gt; and the ref that matched the &lt;src&gt; must not
 447      exist in the set of remote refs; the ref matched &lt;src&gt;
 448      locally is used as the name of the destination.
 449 </p>
 450 </li>
 451 </ul></div>
 452 </li>
 453 </ul></div>
 454 <div class="para"><p>Without <em>--force</em>, the &lt;src&gt; ref is stored at the remote only if
 455 &lt;dst&gt; does not exist, or &lt;dst&gt; is a proper subset (i.e. an
 456 ancestor) of &lt;src&gt;.  This check, known as "fast forward check",
 457 is performed in order to avoid accidentally overwriting the
 458 remote ref and lose other peoples' commits from there.</p></div>
 459 <div class="para"><p>With <em>--force</em>, the fast forward check is disabled for all refs.</p></div>
