Commit 098e711e caused git-push to match only branches when considering which refs to push. This patch updates the documentation accordingly and adds a test for this behavior. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- We had discussed this behavior in April, and I worked up an implementation and test then. We ended up not using it, but your later commit introduced the same behavior. So here are the supplementary changes from my original, which still apply (I have verified that the test goes from failure to success with 098e711e).
