[PATCH 0/3] Teaching "git push" to map pushed refs

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Earlier, Peff taught "git fetch origin master" to update a
remote-tracking branch by internally mapping the colon-less refspec
'master' to '+refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master'.  Both

	git fetch origin
	git fetch origin master

would update the same refs/remotes/origin/master, which avoids
surprises.

However, we did not have a similar refspec mapping on the push
side.  This three-patch series does just that, and would help
triangular workflow by making these two:

	git checkout master && git push origin
	git push origin master

update the same ref at the 'origin'.

Junio C Hamano (3):
  builtin/push.c: use strbuf instead of manual allocation
  push: use remote.$name.push as a refmap
  push: also use "upstream" mapping when pushing a single ref
