You can use a branch's shortname to push it. Push used to create
the branch on the remote side if it did not yet exist. If you
specified the wrong branch accidentally it was created. A safety
valve that pushes only existing branches may help to avoid
errors.
This commit changes push to fail if the remote ref does not yet
exist and the refspec does not start with refs/. Remote refs must
explicitly be created with their full name.
