Fix rule "i-want-to-create-a-new-remote-branch-from-current-local-one" (#208) 

* Add missing HEAD argument in 2 Git commands

These commands had been inserted in #148 and (over)simplified in #163.

The issue is that `git push <remote>` and `git push -u <remote>` will
typically raise the error below (unlike `git push <remote> HEAD`):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
fatal: The current branch new-branch has no upstream branch.
To push the current branch and set the remote as upstream, use

    git push --set-upstream origin new-branch
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

* Add doc URL & Avoid triple backquotes
