You can control what gets pushed via an entry in the .git/config file.
If you look at the snippet I include below of one of mine for a remote
called publuc, you see that I am fetching everything, but pushing just a
few branches back (those with the push lines) and renaming them in the
process.
If you make a "push" line with *:* as its contents, I think you will
then cause all branches to get pushed to the remote repository (but be
careful that might not be what you want, as all the branches you are
playing with will get pushed as well).
[remote "public"]
url = ssh://wol/home/alan/git/mbchat.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/public/*
push = master:master
push = mb:melindasbackups
push = old-test:old-mb
