There are still some options undocumented, but I don't know what they
do exacly:

	--thin
	--no-thin
	--repo=
	-v

(OK, I just now saw -v and I'm to lazy to do it now :-)

Best regards
Uwe

Usually a good way to answer that question is:

	$ git blame -C -L'/^int cmd_push/,/^}/' builtin-push.c

and then run "git show" on the commit that introduces the option
parsing, e.g. commit bcc785f6 for --repo.

commit bcc785f611dc6084be75999a3b6bafcc950e21d6
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

git push: add verbose flag and allow overriding of default target repository

This adds a command line flag "-v" to enable a more verbose mode, and
"--repo=" to override the default target repository for "git push" (which
otherwise always defaults to "origin").

This, together with the patch to allow dashes in config variable names,
allows me to do

	[alias]
		push-all = push -v --repo=all

in my user-global config file, and then I can (for any project I maintain)
add to the project-local config file

	[remote "all"]
		url=one.target.repo:/directory
		url=another.target:/pub/somewhere/else

and now "git push-all" just updates all the target repositories, and shows
me what it does - regardless of which repo I am in.

----------------------------------------------------------------

But now I wonder why Linus couldn't have just done:

	[alias]
		push-all = push -v all
