Ok nice. Another thing is that git-push will push all the tracking branches in refs/remotes/origin.

I was wondering if it was possible to have some cogito like wrapper scripts (lets say kg-...) for git again which would use the git commands with some arguments in order to resemble the cogito behavior even more closely. But it dawned on me that this would most likely end up in a rather large amount of script code again.
