"master:master") does not exist there, and we do not create it
unless you give a full refname that begins with refs/ (so that
push can tell if you want to create a tag or a branch).

And why is that?

I think Daniel's rewrite of remote ref matching code that has
been cooking in 'next' changes the match semantics of the remote
side in subtle way to make it easier to favor branches when
pushing branches, but I juggle many topics and I have to go back
to the code to make sure.  Since you are interested, and more
importantly since I know you are capable to do the digging
yourself, I won't be doing the digging myself immediately,
though.

Great. I'll go looking for that.

And if I don't find what I'm thinking of there, I'll see if I can't
cook up something else myself.

Thanks again,
