Also it seems to me that git push --dry-run --porcelain should exit successfully
even if it knows some refs will be rejected.  The calling script can see just
fine for itself that they will be rejected, and it probably still wants to know
whether or not the dry-run succeeded, which has nothing to do with whether or
not the same push would succeed as a not-dry-run.

I think that is OK, but only if "git push --dry-run" still exits with an
error case, since people may be using it for "will this push work?" and
not simply "did an error occur?".
