git-clone.txt: remove the restriction on pushing from a shallow clone
The document says one cannot push from a shallow clone. But that is
not true (maybe it was at some point in the past). The client does not
stop such a push nor does it give any indication to the receiver that
this is a shallow push. If the receiver accepts it, it's in.
Since 52fed6e
(receive-pack: check connectivity before concluding "git
push" - 2011-09-02), receive-pack is prepared to deal with broken
push, a shallow push can't cause any corruption. Update the document
to reflect that.

Create a 'shallow' clone with a history truncated to the

specified number of revisions. A shallow repository has a

number of limitations (you cannot clone or fetch from

it, nor push from nor into it), but is adequate if you

are only interested in the recent history of a large project

with a long history, and would want to send in fixes

as patches.

Pushing from a shallow clone should be avoided if the git version on

the receiver end is older than v1.7.10, or any other git
