+Subject: [PATCH] Drop the click dependency
+
+This reduces the number of external dependencies and relies more on
+Python's standard library.
+
+It drops the --no-push option since argparse doesn't support having a
+--option / --no-option. That's also the default and this makes it
+clearer to the user what the default is.
+
+The help text's formatting is slightly different. Mostly visible are
+that the description and epilog are no longer indented.
