Subject: [PATCH 3/4] remote.c: introduce remote.pushdefault

From: Ramkumar Ramachandra <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2013 18:46:14 +0530

This new configuration variable defines the default remote to push to,
and overrides `branch.<name>.remote` for all branches.  It is useful
in the typical triangular-workflow setup, where the remote you're
fetching from is different from the remote you're pushing to.
