Since you are obviously only interested in pushing the stable branch, why
don't you

        git push linux-stable stable

Hm?

If you do not specify which branches to push, "git push" will find all
refnames which are present both locally and remotely, and push those.
Evidently, however, your local "master" disagrees with the remote
"master".

It is not entirely clear to me from the documentation.  So I was
trying to cobble together something that seemed to make sense.  I want
to work from the devel clone.  On occasion I want to cherry-pick
changesets and push those to the stable branch.  I don't want
everything that goes into devel to go into stable.
