456 Instead of explicitly specifying which refs to update,
457 update all heads that locally exist.
465 Do everything except actually send the updates.
473 Usually, the command refuses to update a remote ref that
474 is not an ancestor of the local ref used to overwrite it.
475 This flag disables the check. What this means is that
476 the remote repository can lose commits; use it with

534 <div class=
"sectionbody">
535 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>There are three ways to specify which refs to update on the
536 remote end.
</p></div>
537 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>With
<em>--all
</em> flag, all refs that exist locally are transferred to
538 the remote side. You cannot specify any
<em><ref
></em> if you use
540 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>Without
<em>--all
</em> and without any
<em><ref
></em>, the heads that exist
541 both on the local side and on the remote side are updated.
</p></div>
542 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>When one or more
<em><ref
></em> are specified explicitly, it can be either a
543 single pattern, or a pair of such pattern separated by a colon
544 ":" (this means that a ref name cannot have a colon in it). A
545 single pattern
<em><name
></em> is just a shorthand for
<em><name
>:
<name
></em>.
</p></div>
546 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>Each pattern pair consists of the source side (before the colon)
547 and the destination side (after the colon). The ref to be
548 pushed is determined by finding a match that matches the source
549 side, and where it is pushed is determined by using the
550 destination side. The rules used to match a ref are the same
551 rules used by
<em>git rev-parse
</em> to resolve a symbolic ref
552 name. See
<a href=
"git-rev-parse.html">git-rev-parse(
1)
</a>.

580 locally is used as the name of the destination.
586 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>Without

<dst

588 ancestor) of

"fast-forward check",
589 is performed in order to avoid accidentally overwriting the
590 remote ref and lose other peoples' commits from there.
</p></div>
591 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>With

</p></div>
592 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>Optionally, a
