Nice, that works. It answers only a part of my questions, but maybe I can complete it. I want to use a repo as both a private backup (which everybody may read but nobody should) and a shared base. So maybe something like

git push origin +refs/heads/*:refs/heads/maaartin-* +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/ maaartin-* :

would do both the backup (where everything gets prefixed by my name) and normal pushing of tracking branches. Could it work? Should I try it out or can it be destructive?
