do you have a push line for your branch in .git/remotes/origin?

URL: git+ssh://user@host/path/module
Pull: master:origin
[...]
Push: mynewbranch:mynewbranch

you'll need that to be able to create your branch remotely.
Once you cloned the remote one, you should have a Pull line for the 
branch anyway and it should just work.

if all of that doesn't work, does git push origin branchname work or 
spit out errors?
