+git push::
+ Works like `git push <remote>`, where <remote> is the
+ current branch's remote (or `origin`, if no remote is
+ configured for the current branch).
+
+git push origin::
+ Without additional configuration, works like
+ `git push origin :`.
++
+The default behavior of this command when no <refspec> is given can be
+configured by setting the `push` option of the remote.
++
+For example, to default to pushing only the current branch to `origin`
+use `git config remote.origin.push HEAD`. Any valid <refspec> (like
+the ones in the examples below) can be configured as the default for
+`git push origin`.

+git push origin :::
+ Push "matching" branches to `origin`. See
+ <refspec> in the <<OPTIONS,OPTIONS>> section above for a
