You might consider creating a separate 'remote' entry then in your
.git/config. You should be able to reconfigure the refspec on that
one to use a particular branch name instead of a wildcard. It's not
exactly pretty, but laziness will be laziness.
A similar option would be to just make a shell alias and be done with it:
savebranch()
{
git push origin $1:kballard-$1
}
Have fun,
Avery
