From: Nipunn Koorapati <nipunn@dropbox.com>

The logic added to check for negative pathspec match by c0192df630 (refspec: add support for negative refspecs, 2020-09-30) looks at refspec->src assuming it is never NULL, however when remote.origin.push is set to ":", then refspec->src is NULL, causing a segfault within strcmp.

Tell git to handle matching refspec by adding the needle to the set of positively matched refspecs, since matching ":" refspecs match anything as src.

Add test for matching refspec pushes fetch-negative-refspec both individually and in combination with a negative refspec.
