Looks perfect to me, and if people want it, one could add the same option as an
alias to the current --track option to the checkout and branch commands.

I would never have thought of that case - good catch.

That's ONE way to do it - and seriously, I don't know if anyone uses that
transport :P
However, one possible improvement for this case would be setting ALL pushed
refs as tracking if the push succeeded, and none otherwise.
Are new transports going to be added that use transport->push, or is that
interface deprecated anyway?
