I would rather think that "git push" should notice that */HEAD is a symref
and refrain from pushing it.  Stated more precisely,

 - It is perfectly fine to do this:

   $ git push there HEAD:somebranch

 - But it does not make sense to push a symref via

   [remote "there"]
   	push = refs/*:refs/*

   to a bare repository that is used as a back-up mirror by including
   refs/HEAD:refs/HEAD in the result of wildcard expansion.
