[PATCH 0/4] doc: git-push: clarify DESCRIPTION section & refspec definition

["Julia Evans via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

I surveyed 16 Git users about the git push man page. Here's a rewrite of the
DESCRIPTION section and the definition of <refspec> based on the feedback.
The goal is to clarify it while communicating the same information. The most
common piece of feedback was that folks didn't understand what the term
"ref" means. Most of the users who said they did not understand the term
"ref" have been using Git for 10+ years.

The rewrite of the <refspec> section is more invasive than I usually prefer:
I've tried to keep as much of the original text as possible, but if there
are too many issues with it then I'll drop that patch from this series.
