Looks like there was a delay between the push and the pull part
(including http://quickgit.kde.org)

I did the following:
- - git push kde:kdenlive.git master:origin/master
 -> 'origin/master' created on remote; does not exist locally
- - git push kde:kdenlive.git :origin/master
 -> 'origin/master' deleted from remote
- - Then I checked quickgit.kde.org but 'origin/master' still existed
- - git push kde:kdenlive.git :origin/master
 -> fails, tells that 'origin/master' does not exist
- - git pull kde:kdenlive.git
 -> creates 'origin/master' locally

=> wtf?
