Probably get-url makes (some) sense because ls-remote is a "fetch
that does not actually fetch anything".  But "get-push-url" to
ls-remote makes _no_ sense whatsoever.  ls-remote and fetch do not
have to know or care about push-url; they do not even have to know
there exists a thing called "git push" ;-)

Wouldn't "git push -v -n" or something suit your needs already?
