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.
