Yes, your text is clear. I realize now I miss-read the line as if it was:
If git push [<repository>] without any <refspec> argument is set, to
-update some ref at the destination with <src> with....
I mentally placed the comma there and then I could not get pass that
(and for me there was no verb there to start with so I though it was the
git-doc lingua).
But the main problem I have I guess is that the line refers to and , but
those comes from the ref-spec, but the whole line is about when ref-spec
is not specified so the placeholders and are not valid. Also your
clarification contain <src> and <dst> but again without ref-spec that is
not defined.
