Pushing symbolic references to remote repositories?

Hi,

I need to share a symbolic reference - essentially, a named pointer to
another reference - among multiple repositories.

As shown in the code below, I can successfully create a local
symbolic-ref `foo_ptr` to branch `foo`, but can't push it to a remote,
in this case `origin`:

$ git branch foo; git symbolic-ref foo_ptr refs/heads/foo; git rev-parse foo_ptr
fbfec27dc6d42d48ca5d5b178caa34c666a4c39b
$ git push origin foo foo_ptr
error: dst ref refs/heads/foo receives from more than one src.

Is there a clean and reliable way to do that, or are symbolic
references just not meant to be shared?

Thanks, D.
