receive-pack: add another option for receive.denyCurrentBranch
When synchronizing between working directories, it can be handy to update the current branch via 'push' rather than 'pull', e.g. when pushing a fix from inside a VM, or when pushing a fix made on a user's machine (where the developer is not at liberty to install an ssh daemon let alone know the user's password). The common workaround – pushing into a temporary branch and then merging on the other machine – is no longer necessary with this patch. The new option is: 'updateInstead': Update the working tree accordingly, but refuse to do so if there are any uncommitted changes.
