Couple of concerns:

- That seems awfully ssh-specific[1]...
- How remote end could deny the operation, modify paths and/or 
get post-creation notification?
- How to handle systems that would autocreate the repository anyway
if push was attempted?

[1] Well, its not like one would want to do that with gits:// anyway,
since there's probably gitolite install on other end anyway...
