This introduces a config setting remote.$remotename.pushurl which is

pushes and fetches as before.
This is useful, for example, in order to to do passwordless fetches
(remote update) over git: but pushes over ssh.

This is a working prototype, but I'd like to rfc about the approach before
coding further.
As I am guilty for suggesting this, obviously I do not have a problem with
what the patch wants to achieve.
And the change looks simple, straightforward and correct.
Things that would go in a full series:
* documentation (man pages, maybe manual)
* tests
Surely.
* teach builtin-remote about pushurl
Hmm,... my impression was that "git remote" does not have much support
for the push side. What kind of things are you going to teach?

First I was thinking about rm and mv, but that's being taken care of
automatically by removing/renaming a config section. This leaves "remote
show $remote" which should list the pushurls along with the urls.
"remote -v" should probably list urls but not pushurls. I don't plan on
adding pushurl support to "remote add", I think using git config is OK
for this setting.
