I'd like to suggest "declined" instead of "failed". "error: failed"
suggests an error in the data or in the tool rather than a default or a
choice on the part of a UI designer.
The first few times I got this error I presumed that it was telling me
my destination repository was corrupt. So I salvaged my changes with
diff and patch, trashed the repository, and cloned a fresh one, (which
didn't show this error when I pushed to it.)
