http://kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-push.html

the '+' means that you want to bypass the security which does not allow
non fast-forward pushes.

Note that you shouldn't do non fast-forward pushes to a repository which
can be cloned by other people than you. Once published (accessible to
anybody) you should do a merge and then push to origin even if you only
take your local history in the merge to avoid user pulling from origin
conflicts due to the non fast forward history.

Regards.
