Current git versions ignore everything after # (called <head> in the
following) when pushing. Older versions (before cf818348f1ab57),
interpret #<head> as part of the URL, which make git bail out.

As branches origin from Cogito, it is the best to correct this by using
the behaviour of cg-push, that is to push HEAD to remote refs/heads/<head>.
