This is the first fix, but it's obvious this is what we want: if a user creates a new branch with git:

 % git checkout -b branches/devel
And then pushes this branch
 % git push origin branches/devel
(which is the way to push new mercurial branches)

We obviously want to create a branch, but the command would fail, and the fix is simple: tell the push that we might create new branches.

This only matters when foce_push=False.

Can't possibly introduce regressions, unless you think of the ability to push new branches as a regression.
