If you are over local transport, I would think you would kill the
both ends. Also, wouldn't killing "git push" before it is done
talking with the receive-pack stop it before it has a chance to
update the remote tracking refs to pretend as if it fetched from
there immediately after a push?
So, no. I do not think we should ever encourage "if this bothers
you, you can ^C it". Making it not to bother is fine, though.
