Documentation/git-push.txt: clarify the "push from satellite" workflow

The context of the example to push into refs/remotes/satellite/
hierarchy of the other repository needs to be spelled out explicitly
for the value of this example to be fully appreciated.  Make it so.

A handy way to push the current branch to the same name on the

`git push origin master:satellite/master dev:satellite/dev`::
`git push mothership master:satellite/master dev:satellite/dev`::
Use the source ref that matches `master` (e.g. `refs/heads/master`)
to update the ref that matches `satellite/master` (most probably
`refs/remotes/satellite/master`) in the `origin` repository, then
`refs/remotes/satellite/master`) in the `mothership` repository;
do the same for `dev` and `satellite/dev`.

This is to emulate `git fetch` run on the `mothership` using `git
push` that is run in the opposite direction in order to integrate
the work done on `satellite`, and is often necessary when you can
only make connection in one way (i.e. satellite can ssh into
mothership but mothership cannot initiate connection to satellite
because the latter is behind a firewall or does not run sshd).
+
After running this `git push` on the `satellite` machine, you would
ssh into the `mothership` and run `git merge` there to complete the
emulation of `git pull` that were run on `mothership` to pull changes
made on `satellite`.
`git push origin HEAD:master`::
Push the current branch to the remote ref matching `master` in the
