Merge branch 'sb/atomic-push'
"git push" has been taught a "--atomic" option that makes push to update more than one ref an "all-or-none" affair. * sb/atomic-push: Document receive.advertiseatomic t5543-atomic-push.sh: add basic tests for atomic pushes push.c: add an --atomic argument send-pack.c: add --atomic command line argument send-pack: rename ref_update_to_be_sent to check_to_send_update receive-pack.c: negotiate atomic push support receive-pack.c: add execute_commands_atomic function receive-pack.c: move transaction handling in a central place receive-pack.c: move iterating over all commands outside execute_commands receive-pack.c: die instead of error in case of possible future bug receive-pack.c: shorten the execute_commands loop over all commands
