You're the second person to mention this. I guess I view the branch not
existing as a minor technical detail that doesn't really change what
you'd do.

Maybe we need to do more in the guidance to reassure people though, you
should still push to a branch if that's what you should do, even if that
branch doesn't currently exist on the remote. This situation will
probably come up more often in the case of team branches.
