Sometimes it is handy to push only the current branch to the default remote repository. For example, if you created a branch using the '--track' option git knows that the current branch is linked to a specific remote. But up to now you needed to say "git push <defaultremote> <thisbranch>", which was quite annoying. You could have said "git push" but then _all_ branches would have been pushed to the default remote.
This commit introduces "git push HEAD", which resolves HEAD to the current branch and pushes only the current branch to its default remote.
Setups that have a remote named HEAD will break. But such a setup if unlikely to exist; and is not very sensible anyway.
