Merge branch 'ab/case-insensitive-upstream-and-push-marker'
On many keyboards, typing "@{" involves holding down SHIFT key and one can easily end up with "@{Up..." when typing "@{upstream}". As the upstream/push keywords do not appear anywhere else in the syntax, we can safely accept them case insensitively without introducing ambiguity or confusion to solve this. * ab/case-insensitive-upstream-and-push-marker: rev-parse: match @{upstream}, @{u} and @{push} case-insensitively
