.sp
Each pattern pair consists of the source side (before the colon) and the destination side (after the colon)\&. The ref to be pushed is determined by finding a match that matches the source side, and where it is pushed is determined by using the destination side\&. The rules used to match a ref are the same rules used by \fIgit rev\-parse\fR to resolve a symbolic ref name\&. See \fBgit-rev-parse\fR(1)\&.
