Re: [PATCH] git-push: Accept -n as a synonym for --dry-run.

commit, push (as you identified), reflog, and send-email have --dry-run
but -n is not a synonym for it.  Some of them even use -n as a shorthand
for a more often used option than --dry-run.

Can you point to an example of a git command supporting --dry-run, and
using -n for something else?

Doesn't commit -n stand for no-verify?  I think that is how it is
documented.

In fact, reflog already supports '-n' to mean dry-run,

Huh?  "git reflog -n 4" is for show-four-entries-from-the-top.
