Re: Using the --track option when creating a branch

I think it would be better to have :

  git push                <= push the current branch
  git push --all          <= push all matching refs
  git push --all --create <= push all matching refs, create if needed

The latest command is probably used so rarely (compared to the others)
that it wouldn't be a problem to make it longer. Of course, if a
refspec is given explicitely, it should be honored and remote refs
created if needed.

Fwiw I'm in favor of that, and it was what I advocated at the time.

Though I think than as soon as you add an explicit remote name, like:
git push origin, pushing all matched references makes sense. Which is
also what I advocated at the time.
