Push support from a shallow clone should be really simple.  Either you 
can update the remote, or you can't.  If your local history does include 
the remote branch head you wish to update then there is nothing 
currently that would prevent the push from proceeding as implemented 
today.  If the remote head is outside the history subset you have 
locally then the push simply cannot proceed.
