As [1/6] said "*:*" does not work and has never worked, and
especially on the push side the patch below makes it clear it was a
glorified no-op, it may be better to say a bit more than "use
this. It's mandatory". It is not like any value makes sense, right?
Perhaps the documentation will be further updated in a later step in
the series to clarify it. Let's read on til the end of the series...

I somehow like this change that turns a _failure into a _success by
expecting test_must_fail, especially because it is clear why the
tested "push" should fail when you look at the rest of the patch ;-)
Fun.
