+Push a patch (defaulting to the first unapplied one) or range of
+patches to the stack. The 'push' operation allows patch reordering by
+commuting them with the three-way merge algorithm. If the result of
+the 'push' operation is not acceptable or if there are too many
+conflicts, the '--undo' option can be used to revert the patch and the
+tree to the state before the operation. Conflicts raised during the
+push operation have to be fixed and the 'resolved' command run.
+
+The 'push' command also notifies when the patch becomes empty after
+the merge operation (i.e. it was fully merged upstream)."""
