Just try -
git push remote branch :)

That is what I do. Unfortunately, the times I forged to name the branch, 
it pushes my master branch, which is different from the remote's, and I 
have to go to the other repository and reset it manually...

I sent a patch series a few days ago to fix this in various ways,
adding a configuration variable push.default, and also indicating that
pushing nothing rather than pushing all matching branches is a safer
(and saner) default.

As you have also discovered, it is very easy to accidentally push
master to the wrong remote with the current default behavior.
