@section Pushing changes to remote trees

@example
git push
git push origin master --dry-run
@end example

Will push the changes to the default remote (@var{origin}).
Will simulate a push of the local master branch to the default remote
(@var{origin}). And list which branches and ranges or commits would have been
pushed.
Git will prevent you from pushing changes if the local and remote trees are
out of sync. Refer to @ref{Updating the source tree to the latest revision}.
