I am not sure if this is a good change, as I already hinted earlier.
If I were doing "git push" to any of my publishing places, I would
be irritated if "refs/remotes/ko/master:something" created a local
"something" branch at the desitnation, instead of erroring out.
On the other hand, I do not think I mind all that much if a src that
is a tag object to automatically go to refs/tags/ (having a tag
object in refs/remotes/** is rare enough to matter in the first
place).
