Document the push refspec format
Taken from `git help push` and adapted to match the supported features only. Future iterations of this feature may include better support for git "SHA-1 expression", documented in `git help push` as: > any arbitrary "SHA-1 expression", such as master~4 or HEAD (see gitrevisions(7)).
