[PATCH 12/12] for-each-ref: accept "%(push)" format

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
May 1, 2015, 22:56 UTC
Message-ID
<20150501225645.GL1534@peff.net>
In-Reply-To
<20150501224414.GA25551@peff.net>

Just as we have "%(upstream)" to report the "@{upstream}" for each ref, this patch adds "%(push)" to match "@{push}". It supports the same tracking format modifiers as upstream (because you may want to know, for example, which branches have commits to push).
