Because I don't want an alias, I want to extend git-push.
According to the man page, "git push"
"Works like git push <remote>, where <remote> is the current branch's remote
 (or origin, if no remote is configured for the current branch)."
What I'm advocating is that "git push <branch>" would be described with:
"Works like git push <remote> <branch>, where <remote> is the <branch>'s remote
 (or origin, if no remote is configured for <branch>)."
