[PATCH 1/6] push, send-pack: fix test if remote branch exists for colon-less refspec

A push must 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.

This commit adds some tests and fixes the existence check in send-pack.
