I played around with pushRemote and I'm not getting it to do something
that's useful for me here. Granted I'm not an expert there so happy to take
some hints on how to use it more specifically.

I checked some of my other projects and it seems pushRemote doesn't get
set, even when working with one fork and one upstream repo:

	$ git remote -v
	HaraldNordgren	git@github.com:HaraldNordgren/brew.git (fetch)
	HaraldNordgren	git@github.com:HaraldNordgren/brew.git (push)
	origin	git@github.com:Homebrew/brew.git (fetch)
	origin	git@github.com:Homebrew/brew.git (push)
