It's horrible if you're coming from languages such as Portuguese in which "puche" literally means pull!!

Almost 10 years in the states and I still have to think before every single git commit.

Just a small correction. It's not "puche", but "puxe", with X. Both sound the same, but the first one is not correct.

Source: I'm Portuguese.

note that "puche" in Portuguese is pronounced exactly like "push" in English.

I thought it was more like "pushy" with the y more of a schwa sound.
