This teaches "push <remote> HEAD" to resolve HEAD on the local side to its real branch name, e.g. master, and then act as if the real branch name was specified. So we have a shorthand for pushing the current branch. Besides HEAD, no other symbolic ref is resolved. Thanks to Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@xxxxxxxxxxxx> for suggesting this implementation, which is much simpler than the implementation proposed before.
